Words

I write novels, stories, essays, plays and screenplays. I write using an unplanned process I call ‘streaming.’

The Flying Mile  (2016)

Dad lives as a ghost in our house.

Only Mum and I can see him.

He looks at us as we address him, but does not speak.

He is there when Mum has guests and he is there when we eat, silently watching us across the table.

He does not age as we age, something else is happening to him: he is getting younger.
