In my dream last night we were back at gatehouse drive. You were lying on my couch in your usual attire. I was in my pyjama bottoms, a t shirt and a button up hooded top. You were smiling at me as I came over and lay on top of you...

moulding my body to yours. I wrapped my arms around your neck and you wrapped your arms around me tight. We lay just like that without any raunchiness or animalistic ravishing.

I felt so contented and my housemates wandered around the house. They passed us on the way out the back to get stoned in the pit of despair. M and K was walking around making noises and talking in funny voices.

This is a pretty thirsty excerpt fro. One of my love letters I feel. Can you imagine curling up in bed reading them all and thinking “that bish needs to chill”

My start-up process to writing a new narrative, besides drinking the stellar coffee of Melbourne, requires some form of inspiration.

But what if Clio, the muse of history, is busy when I have a deadline fast approaching?

#CityofLitWriterinResidence
Well, I’m going to start by visiting one of my favourite archives-the Australian Joint Copying Project.

Hosted by @nlagovau this collection contains documents from Australia, New Zealand Aotearoa, various Pacific Islands, Germany & Britain 1560-1984.

This collection is immense. The original microfilms were recently digitised and, thanks to the NLA team, of a better visual standard.

Really the creation of this collection is a story in itself...

I will now share some Notes on a cat essay I have been working on as most things it’s not just about mister bread (sorry everyone) #CityoflitWriterinResidence
My Father walks into the kitchen and does not take his gumboots off as he has no time. He goes to the sink and gets a glass of water. ‘’Tigger’s dead.’ He says in between gulps of water.  #CityoflitWriterinResidence
We Laugh because this is a joke my Dad is playing on us. Tigger will never die, she is tough and beloved. It is not a joke. Dad explains that he found her body in a bucket of milk that was for the calves to drink.

This will be my last letter to you written from London in this room. I will be in Manchester or more accurately Greater Manchester within the week.

This is the last letter I have edited and shared on my blog. There are more! But I hope this is enough for now :)

“I decide to look into being an Au Pair. I could do that anywhere in the UK maybe even leave London and go back to Manchester. “

Part 1
You grabbed my hand 
we left the wedding 
Holding and squeezing tight 
As we walked 
Stood at an intersection 
I cried into your shirt. 
You reminded me 
That I am 
They are not.
