Beautiful. I came home from the seaside where there were many walks, but can’t wait to take more with the music of this in my ears.

Caroline, I love reading your work, following the trail right through, and also I love saving up the audios to listen to in long sequences, like a dark, and shining, river as the little boat of my listening glimpses wonders. Beautiful. Thank you.

I really like saving up the audios of some favourite writers here too, particularly Sharon Blackie, Adam Wilson, Dougald Hine and David Knowles.

I just love this post. This in particular:

Out of the void, the compost of the universe, tumbles stars and wormholes, churning, silence, grandeur. The oracles here are told in stories (and hundreds have already been written down) by every single culture that has ever lived.
