| Introduction | This blog of my writing and writing interests has the name it has, 'Recapture', because writing, for me, relocates something integral and important that's been lost, forgotten or overlooked. I feel the writer doesn't invent new or previously unknown realities, so much as the writer recovers immemorial realities. And that's why writing matters. |
