What are the big ideas?


Post 1. My idea is for this blog to cover all the thinking about reading and writing that hasn't got onto our blog Taccola. As anyone who knows us knows reading has been almost as fundamental to us as breathing, and books as important as oxygen.

The intention is to be posting what we are currently reading, as well as thoughts about books we have read. Magazines, journals and writing on the web may well appear too. There may even be the occasional item that gets accused of capital L 'Literature', or a novel, but I'll try and keep those under control. [And an addition in August - clearly quite a bit about writing, editing and the creative side is appearing too.]

Conversely there may be some musings on the importance of leading the language we use, rather than being driven by literals and the lowest common denominator of comprehension.

As an ex colleague's T-shirt said: "So many books, so little time".
