When was the first time you really felt like a grown up (if ever)? When I was 8 there was a massive falling out in our family. My aunt and uncle stormed out of the house taking my tiny cousin with them, and it was 14 years before we saw them again. A few monthsContinueContinue reading “When I Was Eight”

If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to? I’d love to be able to made a real difference to the lives of others and animals, but at the moment I think I’d rather give it to Gaza for food and medicine. Nothing has touched me more deeply thanContinueContinue reading “Normally a Charity”

What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail. I was going to write about writing another book then insanity set in, which is much more interesting. Yes my mind is that blank!

Apart from that I like cuddling cats, a good film, a good book, and my group work. My writingContinueContinue reading “Oh dear”

What would you do if you lost all your possessions? It’s not that I’m into possessions, it’s that it would be too upsetting to even think about losing my treasured memories. Stuff is just stuff, but something that belonged to your mum, photographs that document your life, items that have special meaning for you, justContinueContinue reading “I Can’t Go There”

What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind? Dark chocolate isn’t altogether disgusting I used to hate dark chocolate, now I can bear it. Although I did try a 100% dark chocolate and I’m still waiting for my tastebuds to recover. There is no way eating that was good for me. MyContinueContinue reading “Dual Mind Angst”
