In #MoreThanHuman, we offer a set of interviews with poets and writers on how they approach writing about the environment. The more-than-human is a phrase that seeks to side-step traditional nature-culture dualisms and draw attention to the unity of all life as a kind of shared commonwealth existing on a fragile planet. It also reminds us humans that there is more to life, that there is more world, than the human. It relocates us in relation to the mystery.
#PlotsAndPlants: An PROSE Series on Unique and Cherished Places

In Soil: The Story of a Black Mother’s Garden, Camille Dungy talks about developing particular and intimate relationships with place, adding “everyone with a vested interest in the direction the people on this planet take in relationship to others … should … take some time to plant life in the soil. Even when such planting isn’t easy.” This series of posts #Plots&Plants offers a chance for writers and environmentalists to talk about places and plots to which they are particularly attached or invested in. #Plots&Plants will act as an archive and record of places which we will later be able to reflect on as we continue to experience environmental emergency and loss.
Featured writers: Sophie Buchaillard on the Pyrenees, Rachel Carney on Cathay’s Cemetery, George Colkitto on the River Aln in Northumberland, Rhiannon Fielder Hobbs on Talyllychau, and John Freeman on south Wales bridle paths and wild fires,
