A writer’s job is to notice the world.
To catch in words the qualities, textures, patterns, people, events and emotions at play every day.
Cadences — a memoir of personal noticings illustrated with literary awarenesses from secular and spiritual texts — charts large and small happenings in and around one woman’s life and argues for an appreciation of the extraordinary.

Anne M Scriven, a freelance writer and former academic specialising in literature, lives in Renfrewshire, Scotland, with a husband, one son, two dogs and a headful of thoughts.
This is her third title of narrative non-fiction, following Learning to Listen: Life and a Very Nervous Dog (2013) and Provenance: Tales from a Bookshop (2014).
