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.

    I’d like to put an end to these signs. Bike paths should go on forever! 🚲

    📷 Day 9 | language #mbsept

    There are more than 150 of these signs in Wales.

    A painted sign on a wall reads: Cofiwch Dryweryn, commemorating the flooding of a Welsh valley community to provide a water supply for England.

    📷 Day 7 | panorama #mbsept

    Can’t believe it’s been a week already. Good memories of this beach in Wales.

    A panoramic photo of a beach at low tide. The sky is reflected in the wet sand. In the centre of the picture stands a flag to indicate where it's safe to swim, but the tide is obviously too far out for swimming.

    📷 🏡A couple of weeks ago we visited CERES urban farm, with its community garden, cafe, bike workshop, nursery, bookstore, playground, market, chooks and, yes, a food forest. Worth a visit if you’re ever in Melbourne.

    📸 Day 2 | Buildup
    The Micro.blog photo challenge continues! There was a lot of buildup to the blue moon supermoon earlier this week. My verdict? It was 30% more super than usual. But the moon’s always quite amazing, isn’t it?
