First Thoughts

I suppose this work carries on from my Spring Journal but is less of a diary and more focused on writing about landscape; the words we use, the meanings we draw from it, the weight of association we bring to it. I feel that my written work is moving further away from pure history and towards a poetic appreciation of urban and rural landscapes, and want to experiment with ways to describe landscape and talk about it. Some of it will be diary entries, descriptions, observations. It will have no ending but there will be times when I won't write, as I have nothing to say or no time to work. If/when it finishes I hope to be left with a body of work that explores ways of writing about landscape.
