Criteria for posting
So what’s going to be included on this website, and what’s not?
A resounding yes to things that -
- evoke experience;
- greet the senses;
- coax the imagination;
- invoke the spirit of place and of the Isles;
- point to possibilities for the future;
- positvely help in the task of definining the tale’s thread, of ‘people & lands’;
and,
- tickle taste buds, propose poetry, lyrically language, tell stories superlatively, heft histories, thread thoughts, and explain exhilaratingly!
And a measured no to -
- sentimental reminiscing;
- distracting fetishising;
- obsessive theorising;
- threadbare trivialising;
- definitive answering;
- provocative patriotism;
or,
- benumbing propaganda.
What do you make of that?
