Creative Freedom with the John Muir Trust

Calling writers, photographers, and artists! The John Muir Trust are asking for artists to submit their creative vision for wild places to be considered for their Creative Freedom exhibition. How does 'freedom for wild places' inspire you creatively? What is your creative response to the call of the wild places in our landscape? Submit your interpretation of freedom for wild places and you could win an artist-in-residency opportunity worth £1500. Entries close on Thursday the 30th of November.

More from the John Muir Trust about the competition:

Everyone experiences wild places in different ways; they connect with them and see them in a unique way.
As we celebrate 40 years of caring for wild places, we look to the future and wonder how our connection with wildness will change. We wonder what 'freedom for wild places' means to people from different perspectives.
To celebrate this diversity of creative visions of wild places from those who care most passionately about them, we have the following categories: writing, photography, 2D and 3D artworks, and multimedia creations. There are adult, junior and group categories, and we are encouraging entries in all languages.

This is not an ad; I'm a Trust member and believe in the work they do. I'd have entered this myself if I'd had the time!

'So how are things *actually*, Alex?'

It's 6.30pm on a Saturday evening in October and I'm flicking back through my blog posts for the year, reflecting on how I've totally failed to carry out my plan of returning to an old-school pattern of blogging. Not necessarily little and often,

Ten years as a professional writer and editor

In early July 2014, while hiking in the Alps, an idea I'd been considering for some time finally resolved into a plan. I would quit the day job and dive into a new career as a freelance editor and writer. WHOOSH! Hear that? It's the sound
