The Apricot Memoirs
This 224 page book is a romantic fusion of art, poetry, prose. Unbridled creativity, born in a season of adventure and unraveling, inviting us to surrender the great for the greater.
She was created to be sketched on. Accustomed to tears, sunlight fade and whisky stains, her corners curled. Wild flowers are pressed between her textures, and with spontaneous page selections, she gifts a fragrantly apricot, timely word.
Her pilgrimage: one set of golden hands to another, giving what is needed— a word in season.
She is a creation. A song to be shared. Silent breaths kept for a quiet place. Open her with an open heart— her story will leave you a gift. Write it down but most of all, let its sentiment provoke a real change.
The Moonflower Monologues This 224 page book was written in the shadows, beneath the blankets of silent nights. Her words—violet milk. Her pages—tissues for diamond tears. Just as the moonflower, dares to stand and bloom, may these pages encourage you to do the same.
The perfumes from her pages fly high, laying to rest, upon beds of flowers. Light—sewn into her every syllable, holding anthems that carry hearts over bitter seas. She is a scented, dancing whisper, eyes closed, riding the wind, her paper hands grip wisdom’s gift, whilst trekking naked & thin-skinned—
So, just as the moonflower, dares to stand and bloom, growing bright and free, in the shadows of the moon; may these gentle pages, when planted just like seeds, carry breath to move you (& others) through the valleys and the messy seas—In the shadows—blooming.
The Stars Nodded - Picture Book
A colorful picture book; an ode to dreaming, for little and big people alike.
Written with a poetic and passionate sense of movement and aliveness for the dance that life is. During the process of creating this little book of dreaming, Tess imagined it being read almost as a prayer over growing hearts and minds as heads lay gently upon pillows before bed. She envisioned it to be spoken much like a chorus to the dreaming and a catalyst for the big and colourful kind of thinking.
Although this book seemingly leans to the littler of growing hearts, Tess see's it being held by the older hearts too. “Words are powerful enough to build worlds”.
‘The Stars Nodded’ is a self-published book of prose produced ethically on Australian soil by Morgan Printing, using the highest of quality elements including 100% Recycled Uncoated paper, created to last in your heart and on bookshelves for generations to come. With love and thoughtfulness by Tess Guinery.
