March 2020


Amanda Larkman was born in a hospital as it was being bombed during a revolution. The rest of her upbringing, in the countryside of Kent, has been relatively peaceful.

She graduated with a degree in English Literature degree and an MA in Modern Literature and has taught English for many years. 'The Woman and the Witch' was her first novel.

Hobbies include trying to find the perfect way to make popcorn, watching her mad labradoodle run like a galloping horse, and reading brilliant novels that make her feel bitter and jealous.

She has a husband and two teenage children, all of whom are far nicer than the characters in her book.

Scammers

They wouldn’t get away with it if companies’ customer service wasn’t so poor.

We’ve all experienced terrible customer service. Since Covid, it has got worse, with the message ‘we’re dealing with unexpectedly high call volumes at this time’ on repeat for the past four years.

This week it’s been British Gas and Evri who have made my blood boil.

“The society that separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting by fools.” – Thucydides, History of the Peloponnesian War (ca 410 BCE)”

“When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.

Mark Twain (attributed but prob not true - shame - I shall pretend it was him)”
