The Lost Letters of Evelyn Wright

by Clare Swatman

A problem shared was a problem halved,

I thought that even if I could help just one person it would be worth it.

Sometimes, life could surprise you.

‘Nerves are not a sign of weakness, you know.’

No matter how wronged you felt or how bad you felt about decisions you’d made in your life, you must never, ever let your children be the ones to suffer as a consequence.

Bringing a poor little child into the world as a way of trying to mend your marriage would be unfair to the child and yourselves.
