June 8, 2019 - Flipper Girl – To The Rescue No More
As the catch of responsibility drifted out of the saving, there was little left for Flipper Girl to do except wonder beyond the fishbowl of seriously fogged goggles.

April 26, 2019 - Wisdoms of Rose Happy Free
Rose was free from the labour of smiling .
Rose is void of any necessity to feel something she doesn’t – like eternal happiness. She’s actually quite comfortable within a full and complex range of emotions and how, where and when they may appear on her face, in mind – or in public. Rose feels no obligation to make miraculous recoveries from emotional disturbances either. Long Live Rose.
Footnote: Imagine if more people felt more comfortable saying how they really felt, and more people felt more comfortable listening to (and accepting) how others feel. We might all feel a little better – and less uncomfortable about feeling (and revealing) our true emotions.

April 12, 2019 - Wisdoms of Rose Daisy Chain
Rose liked to save the flowers from dying .
Rose enjoys rendering her world with things of great visual delight. She spends lengthy periods absorbed in personal and worldly examination, surrounded by things of great beauty, interest and pleasure, all of which assist in easing the trespassing of time – and the invasion of unfortunate thoughts. Long Live Rose.
Footnote: Rose is an independent promoter of self acceptance (and indulgence); a star in self development; and a high minder of her own identity. She stands supremely comfortable in herself, resolved and content on her own path – and free from any expectation to be liked or followed. Her stories read like a dream school report, with a quirky twist and streak of Rose’s signature deadpan humour.
