Since then I've been moving even more 'upcountry', to Bristol where I did my teacher training, to Forest Gate in Newham where I had my first teaching, and from there to Oxford, where I worked for BT for three years, and then Waltham Abbey.

2023 in Books

Welcome to my Sheena is Writing Blog
For my first post I'm kicking things off with a whistle-stop tour of all the books I read in 2023. It seemed as as good a place to start as any. I'm planning for the articles on my blog to be all about reading and writing fiction. So if that's your thing, watch this space.
Okay, strap yourselves in. Oh, and by the way, some of the titles I've reviewed in my newsl Read more of this blog post »

I didn't enjoy this as much as I was expecting to. There were so many characters that I was constantly flicking back through chapters to remind me who was who and what they were last doing. On a plus though, I did enjoy the humour. ...more
