Liminal Writing: Inspired by a line from “A Lion Tracker’s Guide to Life”

In this session of Liminal Writing, Ces and Lee reflect on their practice of 10-minute timed writing sessions inspired by various quotes. They talk about starting this practice of writing together during the pandemic lockdown and discuss its impact on their lives.

They take inspiration from a line from 'A Lion Tracker's Guide to Life' by Boyd Varty - “To stand your ground means to disrupt the hard wiring in the creator's instinctual makeup. They are used to things running away.”

They share personal reflections triggered by this quote, drawing connections to experiences and memories - remembering afternoons winnowing rice in the Philippines, to an unforgettable sight while on safari in Nairobi. The session emphasizes the importance of writing as a means of introspection and invites listeners to try this practice for themselves.
