Moving On From Noiseness
Before I arrived in Achill Island my impression of bogland would have been boring, dull and mundane. In essence, nothing to see.

The word bog comes from the Irish word soft like the saying ‘tóg go bog é’ – take it softly or easy.

No Other Voices
Achill Sound How did I cope with Storm Éowyn, my first night in my modular home? Well, it’s an easy question to answer. I slept right through it. Tiredness had overtaken over my weary body and I have to say it was one of the best night’s sleeps of my life. I felt snug in bed, and miles away from the cold outside world.

What’s Wrong With Day-Dreaming

I took a trip to Keel. Oh what a beach! The sheep like my mind are free to wander. What I really love is the freshness of air, the kind that untangles the mind. The sense of freedom in its purest form of creative mind in open landscape. And I have unearthed a story.

The sun dipped low in a chalky haze over the bog. Four scraggly looking sheep had wandered in, too busy grazing to be bothered by me. Living life at the edge with the chatterings of this world being pulled away. Oh how, I like and need that.
