Slow games,
kept warm.

A garden to grow, a neighbour to help, a place that waits for you. No scores and no timers. Come back in a month and nothing has wilted.

Driftwood Isle: a fenced cottage garden of carrots, sunflowers and pumpkins above a sandy beach, where a small beaver in a straw hat stands beside his finished stick lodge, hoping for a pumpkin
the beaver's lodge, finished on day nine

A day at a time.

  1. Tend a little. Water what you planted, see who needs a hand.
  2. Go to sleep. That ends the day, and it's a good place to stop.
  3. Wake up to something new. What grew overnight, what washed up on the beach.
