General

Hi everyone! Am at the library with lots of books to plow through for research for Lin's essay, so I thought I'd update my blog while I was about it. Well, I had my birthday, which was good, I'm now 31. I will get used to it in time. I though Christine's session yesterday was really good, she captured my attention for the whole of the lesson. Considering sometimes I don't have a very long attention span, this was good! The programme on channel 4 last night on large families was very good, very interesting. My personal view is that if you have the capacity for lots of children (mental, emotional, financial and practical) and you have lots of support then it's fine. I won't keep people in suspense any longer. My book is going to be Christian young adult fiction. It is going to be called Faith Letters and is about two 14 year old christian girls. One of them moves away and goes off the rails somewhat. The other one keeps writing to her (hence the title) and praying for her, and eventually she comes round to the fact that she needs to recommit her life to God and start living his way. It's going to be really good and sell really well. Well, that's it for now, I have lots of books to read and work to do, so I will go. Love Nicola x
