The poet Sylvia Plath wrote in 'Black Rook in Rainy Weather', 'let spotted leaves fall as they fall / without ceremony or portent'. If I think of my stories as leaves, then they are leaves from many different trees. Or maybe they are just many different colours. These stories are selected from four collections published by Ginninderra Press and are my attempt to give every one of them - my stories, that is - another chance to fall willy-nilly into what I hope are your expectant hands. Zenda Vecchio is an award-winning short story writer and poet whose work has been published in a variety of literary journals and magazines. She has also had two young adult novels published, as well as a novel for adults, The Swan's Egg.

    'Words are magic. I have delighted in them all my life - an early memory is of myself on my swing long before I went to school chanting words aloud, fitting them together into patterns, my mind exploding with images. I have been doing it ever since. And some words are more magic than others. Their sound. The pictures they make. Not words and pictures. For me words are pictures....
