A Simple Life of Solitude: Nature & Literary Short Stories of Finding Magic in Moments
There is a quiet kind of magic woven into the fabric of everyday life, waiting for those who choose to slow down and notice. A breeze stirring the gum leaves at dawn, the hush of waves retreating into the sand, the golden hush of twilight settling over the hills—these are the moments I treasure, the ones that breathe life into my stories.
​
Here, in this little corner of the world, I write about simple living, about the beauty of solitude and the wild joy of noticing the small things. My nature and literary short stories are an invitation—to step outside, to pause, to listen. To rediscover the wonder that exists in a life unhurried.
​
As an Australian author, my stories are shaped by the land itself. The whispering forests, the red earth stretching beyond the horizon, the endless sky—they are characters in their own right, woven into every tale I tell. Writing literary fiction is how I make sense of the world, how I hold onto the fleeting, and how I share a piece of my own simple life with you.
​
I also bring these stories to life through my podcast, A Wild and Simple Life—a collection of literary short stories that celebrate solitude in nature, small wonders, and the simple joys that uplift the spirit. It is a space to linger, to breathe, to find comfort in knowing that slowness is not emptiness but fullness of another kind.
​
Whether you are here to read, to reflect, or to dream, I hope you find something that speaks to you.

Let’s make time stand still together—one story, one moment, one breath at a time.
