Many really thoughtful
Posted on Sun, 17 Sep 2017
Many really thoughtful descriptions. I particularly liked 'emerald mosses' myriad mound like the backs of giants beneath the ground' . Very evocative of those lush lumpy humps in the damp woods!
I sometimes lost the connections,...

Posted on Sun, 20 Aug 2017
I have been reading in 'Survival', Elsie, starting with your parents moving stories. The book reflects such a mixture – as we see today – of the brutal, sadistic depth that can be sunk to, and the perseverance and brave kindnesses so frequently...

Posted on Mon, 14 Aug 2017
I suppose the lyrics of 'Cars' is suggesting the difficulties of facing handling social relationships, and wanting a place of retreat, to emerge when ready. Having many people around, all talking can be difficult if you have some Asperger...

Posted on Fri, 11 Aug 2017
You also show how trying to help can be quite gruelling and tiring, and complicated in having a constant change of newcomers to try to understand how they will take what you say, and the rules that have to be. You seemed to have had much...

Posted on Tue, 01 Aug 2017
We now have another lad to try to understand. Again, you seem to guess so much of the why of what can seem odd behaviours. Sugar relaxes away from tension and the jarring thoughts, doesn't it? I'm glad you brought in again his happy memories of...

Posted on Tue, 25 Jul 2017
I'd been wondering if you would manage to get back into this. You do seem to have a great ability in getting into his mind, sympathetically, and seeing how he might be seeing, feeling things.
I remember when my son was in (quite a small)...

It is interesting that though some details of our history gets vague, we can have very sharp recollections of feelings we had of hurt, confusion, misunderstanding, panic, and growing understanding of others' reactions which at first seemed...

Posted on Sat, 24 Jun 2017
There seems to be a four-dimensional effect here as the time element comes in with the stretching and opening, and fading, withering. And the shrivelling uprooted weeds in piles with the insects crawling around and through (the weeds are the '...
