There is no pattern the human mind can devise that does not exist already within the bounds of nature...Everything we do, see, write, notate, all are an echo of the deep seams of the universe. Music is the invisible world made visible through sound.

Free and fair access to books - to reading - is a right and one we should fight for.

History is written by the victors, the strongest, the most determined. Truth is found most often in the silence, in the quiet places.

Library campaigners are not prepared to stand by and watch something they cherish be dismantled brick by brick.

Pas a pas, se va luenh. Step by step, we make our way.

There’s only one difference between published and unpublished writers, and it is this -- the first group see their work in print on the shelves of Waterstone’s or Tesco or online at Amazon; the second group are yet to have physical evidence of the hours, weeks, years spent fashioning words into their patterns. You are already a writer.
