Years ago, having moved houses about six or seven times in London, all I dreamt about was owning a patch of land that I could call my own. I’d often picture myself – in fact, I still do – stretching my legs out on an easy chair, a cup of tea in my hand with no one to worry about, a... Read more of this blog post »

I am officially on Goodreads.

It took me long enough. Four years to be exact. I remember making my profile there too. I signed up, signed in and looked around. I had no idea what I was doing, or what it was even for, so naturally, I did what most people do when they cannot figure out a new platfor...
