Loneliness and the Writer: click here
'Loneliness is the follower of bereavement and isolation; the sequel to so many sad life events. An imposition, creeping up with its cunning net. But solitude is a fresh place, chosen to create new work and connections to life outside.'

The Writer and Nature: click here
'As an adult, I've formed the habit of taking season notes almost every day. It feels like reaching out a hand to touch the outside world and gain the state of self-forgetfulness needed to write.'
