Observables is my weekly newsletter that features things I’m watching, reading and wearing, as I look for the mystery in the mundane each week. Come for the humorous reflection as we make meaning in our intersecting lives — the thingness connects us to life outside our own heads.


Rebecca Davey is a multi-hyphenate artist, having worked as a writer-creator-television producer for over a decade. Her current brainchild, Ceres Productions, fills its expanding creative universe with diverse projects big and small. Sometimes she’s an actor too.

Testimonials about Observables

“In a world where we so often feel bombarded, Observables is a balm. It always arrives in my inbox at just the moment I need a smile, a tender observation, a kind word, and someone to say - oh, it hurts here, doesn't it? Plus I can always use a little fashion advice.” - Jessica.

Observables is one part educational, one part entertainment, and one part naked soul. My favourite thing about it is all the secondary characters - the daughters, partners, pets, and even moments that have a life of their own. I get to observe them first through the writer’s eyes and then through my own.” - Tamara

“Your articles are a breath of fresh air.” - Yael.
