I love that Alain de Boton line - I think there’s also something to be said for liminality. You are neither here nor there on a journey - in the same way that the thing you are writing is neither written nor unwritten - it’s like a state of becoming that is perhaps better helped along by you being in the same state of liminality as the work you are forming. What do you reckon?

This is a nice idea. I like that by 'going somewhere' your writing does too x

Oh me too! Is there something to be said for the feet of a metre in poetry and your own feet taking you someplace ?

Definitely! Love that - metric feet/human feet. You've reminded me I have an essay on something similar to this I'll have to put up soon! x
