'Experiencing the living world alongside his children brings him into contact with an unsophisticated, more instinctual approach, one that seldom starts with “ooh, that’s lovely”, but often begins with “whoa, that’s gross”.' (@islomane) https://t.co/PNHXEyrhiZ

[I'm on Bluesky @RSmythFreelance]

@DavidMullHere @hazel_press @KatrinaNaomi thank you! I think just about all 50 copies are now sold and @hazel_press isn't going to print any more, so you have a true piece of ephemera

[Sara Hudston @islomane]

@Ivor @hazel_press @CharlestonTrust thank you Ivor

@DrDavidCooper And of course Thomas Hardy's 'Afterwards': "If I pass during some nocturnal blackness, mothy and warm,/When the hedgehog travels furtively over the lawn,"

[Sara Hudston @islomane]

What made us in the woods so late? While @KatrinaNaomi channeled her inner Dorothy Wordsworth, I had a go at summoning Coleridge in ‘Christabel’ mode

[Katrina Naomi @KatrinaNaomi]

A new venture with @hazel_press & @islomane in which I get to channel my inner Dorothy (Wordsworth). There are 50 copies for sale. Read excerpts here 💚💚💚https://t.co/hsBfWyTnhV

Lime blossom. And now, rain

Tens of thousands of foxgloves the colour of the earth are flowering in Doverhay Wood, where a conifer plantation was cleared. It already looks so different from when I wrote about it in November last year https://t.co/51HBSdaWMj

'Online music stores offer hundreds of contemporary recordings of humpback whale 'music' for our relaxation. All of them, Haskell notes, have been edited to 'omit the blare and cacophony of the lived experience of real whales'.' (@islomane)
