Status Updates From In the Pines

It had been a battlefield in many wars, not only the last one, and the forest had swallowed many bodies. It was all sacred ground. Death leaves a mark, whether those who survive choose to make their own or not. Some people feel it more than others. But it’s there, as if impregnated in the bark of the trees or soaked into the soil…

The atmosphere is great:) a very comfy read

‘All those days in the house, stuck behind glass, have brought you to this. The need to walk. The need to breathe. The need to escape’.

‘In this light the forest is at its most suggestive. Every shadow seems to move. Every fallen tree or crooked branch the limb of some unknown creature’.

Wonderful
