Terms

The short version: read anything here, quote it with a credit, and do not reprint it whole without asking.

Using the writing

The essays, photographs and audio are mine. Quote a paragraph with a link and we are square. For anything longer, see rights and permissions.

Comments

Be recognisably human. I remove advertising, abuse, and anything that reads as though a machine wrote it in a hurry. There is no appeal process, because there are only two of us and one of them is me.

No warranty on advice about chisels

This site describes how other people work with stone, lead, wood, thatch and lime. It is reportage, not instruction. If you are about to do something structural, ask someone qualified rather than a writer with a camera.

Changes

If these terms change in a way that matters, the letter will say so.
