Abstract

The web content details a creative journey undertaken by two writers, Fox Kerry and Smillew Rahcuef, who invite readers to join their narrative adventure. They have co-written a series of short stories, with the most recent one titled "Two Headed Horse Tails." This concept involves a playful tug of war in storytelling, where each writer contributes alternating paragraphs, adhering to a unique set of rules they've established for their collaborative process. The stories are characterized by whimsical elements, such as a creativity moth, and references to personal experiences and emotions. The authors reflect on the absence of a loved one, possibly a family member who inspired their creativity, and extend an invitation to readers to engage with their work or even to try their hand at similar creative writing endeavors.

Sometimes a moth, sometimes a butterfly

Yes, different photo. Thanks for noticing. You are the observant one.

I will begin a new one.

Just give me a momento.

taking a second . . . the creativity moth just flew away.

damn, I hate it when that happens. It scares.

It’s hard to catch those things back.

You don’t say!

I wrote an e-mail to mine, and it still didn’t reply. Guess they went on holiday together. I heard butterfly island is trendy this year.

Have you been there?

It’s close to Goa, right before Gobi, and next to Gaudi. They call it la Sagrada Playa.

Yes . . . Sacred Beach, I’ve heard of it. I hear one goes there, to get their mojo back. But I like doing things more naturally.

What’s more natural than a beach where you mend in the starfish mist?

Finding my moth here at home?

Good luck with that.

I know, right?

I had to call in a Mothfinder last time. She was all voodoo and hyperjaloo, twirling like a dervish all over the place.

Even my pet snake got scared.

But she did the job, and after drinking a chamomile or two, we vibed on the same wavelengths.

… found the photo. It’s your mother and I. Her eyes for only nonsense. Mine, dark, just for her. Penny Mountains behind us, collected from fountains, leaving silver for those deprived more than just amor.

My confession: It fell from Gypsy Brown to me, one crushed wing, ahide in corner.

Dad! I miss her so much.

Mom was the best creativity moth. A dancing butterfly. A singing firefly.

When is she coming back? It’s been a long time. What did we do? Is this my fault, or yours?

I wish she were there with us to begin a new chapter.

This story was co-written by Fox Kerry (not me) and Smillew Rahcuef (that’s me).

We call the concept the Two Headed Horse Tails. (There’s a pun. Same as last time)

As Fox (still not me) describes it, Two Headed Horse Tails can be a tug of war. Two people (one of them, me) are trying to get a tale into the corral, sometimes even against each other’s will.

Here are the rules (made to be broken):

200 words total. (we broke it, and made it 300)
Each person gets 40 words for their paragraph/portion, where whoever starts a story would get 1,3,5 (120 words), and the second would get 2,4 (80 words). (we broke it, and made it 6x50 this time)
And they can switch back and forth as to who starts it. (or not!)

What about finding yourself another horse writer (!) and giving it a try? (I was about to say, you could try by yourself, but, mmmh, that would be like a one headed horse tail, like regular)

This was our eighth tale! Here are the previous ones:

Have a nice day!
