Seiquia People
Year after year, the Seiquia sing their songs. The Men sing to the Tools, to the Animals, and to the Trees. The Women sing to the Fruits, to the Fish, and to the Young. The Two-Spirits People sing to the Water, to the Earth beneath our feet, and to the Sky and everything in it. Lovers sing to the Infants and to the Children. The Children listen, and practice singing to each other. The Old People sing the stories to everyone else, to teach us.

Gran and Grandpa's
Since Jan moved in, the power has gone out with unusual frequency. I hope she doesn’t think we’re negligent. This place has never been advertised as an inn… but, over the years, Gran’s good nature has attracted all sorts of temporary visitors – and I guess the word’s got out. The guys on bikes are my favourite, normally sharing some sort of adventure story over too many beers on the back porch. They don’t tend to talk to me unless I initiate the conversation, which is fine. I’ve never had a problem just listening.

What If?
I have had a blank Word document open for eleven days. Eleven. What if I don't write well enough? What if I don't get enough traffic to my website? What if my friends laugh at me? What if... I can't go on typing all the what ifs that went through my head. There are so many it hurts to write it out.
