The story I am here to write

The story I am here to write is a story of the land and the body, of inner and outer landscapes, of living in flow and ease and beauty. Of Hozho, Tao and Wyrd. I am here to write a story written at the margins of the civilised world, in the liminal space of wild places – Norfolk, Ushant, Lewis. I am here to write the story of the land, with the voices of the more-than-human beings of the land, but also the voices of my own body and the bodies of others – that speak their own language too. I am here to write my story in language that curves round the presence of things, that is a “Saying”, that is Geopoetic, that is sensuous. That is a listening speaking. A language that follows the contours of the land, the contours of the body, the contours of the inner world of image and feeling.
