I am a Brummie living in Northampton who loves to write but gets distracted with other things. I enjoy horror/fantasy and anything that provokes original thought.
My literary heroes are Clive Barker, Stephen King, Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft. Everyone should read George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-four .
I have work published by AlienBuddha Press, Loft Books, BlackBough Poems, DarkWinter Literary Magazine and Paragraph Planet.

You bring the memories of younger days back in a haunting way, Jenny. It's good to have fond reveries. Enjoyed your latest diary entry (I imagine?) even if I now have images of long, chestnut-coloured hair swinging away. Take care. Paul :)
