Drawing on Sand, Drawing on Water (2014) is rooted in memories of walking the Falmouth coastline by day and night, and in the resonances that cluster around tidal rhythm.
Falling and Listen (2013) are both less focused on place, and more on character. Two characters, to be exact, locked in a perpetual comedy of errors: deadman and hare.

These stories look to the dream as a form of breathing – one that offers a permeable membrane between the human organism and the animate, communicative world.
