Laughter and Photos and Novels and Stuff

Hey everyone! How's life?

I'm not supposed to be busy at the moment, as I'm on holiday, but I'm pretty busy with final touches to my novel. It's getting to the point where I can actually see it happening in the near future, so I am, of course, very excited (and also pretty nervous).

(I am also very annoyed at the moment with editing because it's being so slow and not working and I just want it done.)

While I haven't written anything for a while (but people still seem to be reading my posts for some reason??), I am working on a holiday thing that provides you, the reader, with a short detail about each day that I am on holiday (musings, questions, that sort of thing). I will be publishing that when I get home, but for now, another Pinterest Blog Prompt: The Last Thing That Made You Laugh

This was actually earlier, just before I sat down to write this, when my wonderful sister was taking pictures of me so that I can update my profile picture on Facebook for my 'Author' Facebook Page (very very exciting!). 

As having a camera (phone) pointed at my face always makes me slightly uncomfortable, I started laughing, which resulted in some pretty weird pictures of me.

I did get a few good ones, and I'm on my way to having my Facebook Page ready for when The Forgotten Ones is published!

Don't forget to subscribe to keep up with my novel/life (wow, I sound like I'm a YouTuber here, if you can imagine the perky voice and the hands pointing downwards), and have a great day!

Carers Week

Hi everyone! It feels like it's been ages since I last posted anything (or really wrote anything for that matter) but hey, exams! Anyway, this week (11th-17th June) is Carers Week, so I thought that I'd do some raising of awareness for Young Carers. First of all, shout out to my friend for standing up in assembly to talk about this, and for all those who ran the cake stall at school (they raised £69!). She's so amazing, and most of the following information comes from her. There are three main types of care that someone can provide-  physical (e.g helping to get dressed), practical (e.g shopping) and emotional (e.g comforting them if they’re upset or anxious etc). My friend thinks that emotional is probably the hardest to deal with, and it can worry carers a lot, especially when they’re at work or school (is that person ok, has anything happened to them etc), and I have to say that I agree. For young carers, the most common situations are looking after a paren

Steam trains move slowly but surely

Hello :) Those of you who know me well will probably have listened to at least one rant about feminism, especially after having studied Invisible Women by Caroline Criado-Perez in English. And those of you who have also read this wonderful book will (hopefully) be joining me in ranting. One of the parts of this book discusses women's health and medicine, and how the concept of the default male (a major concept throughout the entire book) prevents women's health issues from being properly understood and treated. There were many parts of the book that made me so angry that I had to put it down and just stare into the distance. It was probably quite a good thing that we were studying it, because it meant that I only had to read a few chapters at a time and so the anger wasn't building up BUT, the revolution is here! Slowly, it comes, like a steam train. One of the parts of the revolution concerns actually listening to and collecting data on women's health so...  Please fil

Do You Think That Dragons Would Like Campervans?

Because I haven't actually written anything on my blog for a bit, the modern look threw me once again. Oops? But hello! I hope that everyone is doing okay with everything that's going on at the moment. Our history teacher said that we're living through history at the moment and that it is exciting (especially as a historian) but also terrifying. This came about because we were talking about primary sources and secondary sources and which is more reliable/accurate (because it's history, the answer is neither). If you wrote a diary about the events happening at the moment, is it more or less accurate/reliable than someone thirty years in the future writing about the events drawing from multiple sources? Haha isn't history great. It's fascinating and there are so many different interpretations that can come out of sources, much like English (we're studying Othello at the moment and I did go off on a mini-rant about how I don't like Cassio). Oh, and also I j
