Writing Slowly

My name’s Richard. I live in Sydney, on the traditional land of Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. Here I write about writing and reading (and what I do when I'm not writing or reading). I'm writing slowly but may at some point speed up. Connect with me on micro.blog or at Mastodon @aus.social@writingslowly. On Reddit, I'm @atomicnotes.

📷 Photo challenge day 25: decay.

My worm farm is amazing! By turning waste into compost these little wrigglers perfom a kind of magic.

It’s also a metaphor for my writing process. I don’t worry if the input is rotten. The output will be quite different.
