  Writing Landscape

  Linda Cracknell

  Inhabiting a landscape, walking a landscape, writing a place and time. 
  Linda Cracknell is a writer of place and nature who believes in being alert, observing, and writing from the particulars of each experience. Engaging bodily with her writing, she is someone for whom getting mud on her boots, sleeping high up in the hills, or being slapped by salt water can all be part of her process. She follows Susan Sontag's advice to “Love words, agonize over sentences and pay attention to the world.”  
  In this varied collection of essays, Linda backpacks on a small island that is connected to the mainland at low tide, musing on the nineteenth-century Scottish writer whose character was shipwrecked there. She hikes the wooded mountain trail close to her home in winter snow—a place she is intimately familiar with in all weathers and seasons—and she retraces the steps of a multiday hike made almost seven decades after her parents trod the route together. She explores her inspirations, in nature and from other artists and their work.  
  Reading this collection will open your eyes to the world around you and how you can observe, take note, and later commit those notes and memories to written pieces that will evoke the place and time.

  Egyptian Legends and Folktales -...

  In ancient Egyptian mythology, the creation of the world was a profound and mystical event, explained through various narratives rooted in different regions. These myths aimed to answer fundamental questions about existence, the origins of the gods, and humanity's place within the universe. Among the most significant are the myths from Heliopolis, Hermopolis, and Memphis, each offering a unique perspective on creation. 
  The Ennead of Heliopolis tells the story of creation centered around Atum, the first god, who emerged from the chaotic waters of Nun. Atum, often depicted as a self-created deity, brought forth the twin deities Shu, god of air, and Tefnut, goddess of moisture, by spitting or coughing them out. These two then gave birth to Geb, the earth god, and Nut, the sky goddess. From their union came Osiris, Isis, Set, and Nephthys, forming the Ennead, a group of nine deities. This myth emphasizes the power of creation through divine will and the subsequent emergence of order from chaos. 
  In Hermopolis, the Ogdoad myth presents a different version of creation. Here, eight primordial deities existed in male and female pairs, representing elements like darkness, water, and chaos. These pairs were Amun and Amaunet, Heh and Hauhet, Kek and Kauket, and Nun and Naunet. They resided in the watery abyss before merging their powers to create a primordial mound, from which the sun god Ra emerged, illuminating the world. This story highlights the collaboration of fundamental forces to bring forth light and life.

  The Great North Road - London to...

  THE GREAT NORTH ROAD is a journey as satisfying for the armchair traveller as the long-distance cyclist. Enriched with history, humour and insight, it’s a tribute to Britain and the endless appeal of the open road. 
   
  In 1921, Britain’s most illustrious highway, the Great North Road, ceased to exist – on paper at least. Stretching from London to Edinburgh, the old road was largely replaced by the A1 as the era of the motor car took hold. A hundred years later, journalist and cyclist Steve Silk embraces the anniversary as the perfect excuse to set off on an adventure across 11 days and 400 miles. Travelling by bike at a stately 14 miles per hour, he heads north, searching out milestones and memories, coaching inns and coffee shops. Seen from a saddle rather than a car seat, the towns and the countryside of England and Scotland reveal traces of Britain’s remarkable past and glimpses of its future. Instead of the familiar service stations and tourist hotspots, Steve tracks down the forgotten treasures of this ancient highway between the two capitals. 
  "Weaving the history of the old road with the colour and the characters of today, Steve proves that any journey is an adventure if you know where to look." - ALASTAIR HUMPHREYS
