I'm a University Lecturer in English and the author of a novel, The Secret of Hurricanes (MacAdam/Cage 2002). My life is summed up by Rumi, who said: "My story gets told in various ways: a romance, a dirty joke, a war, a vacancy." Rumi's quote is the epigraph to Hurricanes. The purpose of this journal is to explore creativity and the writing life.

More birds
Yesterday, a hundred black birds in flight. They landed, disappearing in the green grass.
Today, a vulture circling over our field. I made a head count of our cats.
I wish I had a field, a near field.
