‘Canto fermo’ is the term for an existing melody used as the basis for a new composition. The prose and poetry of mystics like John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila and Edith Stein – all informed by the Gospel – is my ‘melody’. The ‘new composition’ is this blog and my indie novel ‘The Age for Love’. To buy my book go to amazon.com or smashwords.com and download to your kindle, iPad, phone or any reading device.

WHEN DOES A 'FETUS' MORPH INTO AN 'UNBORN NEPHEW? (Letter to the Dom Post, July 17)
Reading Man guilty of crash that killed unborn nephew (July 17), I
wondered what is the defining moment when a fetus, which can legally be killed
right up to full term by abortion and go supposedly unnoticed except as a
statistic, morphs into an ‘unborn nephew’ whose loss is rightly mourned.
