Coastal walk is

deep sand littered by sheoak needles
roar and hiss of surf, whitecaps all the way out to indigo waters
rock pools with dried crab pincers, straggled seaweed
and in my mind: thump of horses laughter fantasy characters at work/play
my novel reravelling scene by scene
two writers talking
talking characters, plot, setting
the weight of the sky
wind-bite
snaking windward path
inspiration
