The Printed Land: April 2013
http://printedland.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Writings on landscape and memory. Tuesday, April 16, 2013. The Hill of the Winds. I have told no-one this before. We heard of one building with a sound roof and a wooden floor, left open as a bothy. It nested in ochre folds of land at the base of a towering, windswept hill, the dark shape like a presence of a benign spirit.

What is (Non)Secular Girl? Category: Literature and Spirituality. June 8, 2013. Oscar Wilde famously said, “I drink to separate my body from my soul.” He would not be the only one to try such a futile endeavor, to think she might unshackle her soul from the body’s cage with magical key-shaped elixirs, to think, erroneously, that the cage and the prisoner are two different things. It’s one thing to believe in mind-body-spirit connectedness when you possess a healthy, young body. But if you’re trying...
