About
Welcome
I am working-class. I live near Coalville, in Leicestershire. Until the pit closures, during the 1980s, the area was a coal mining community. My dad and two grandads were coal miners. I have been down pit, but not to work, thankfully.
I have a PhD in Working-Class Women's Writing and a MPhil in Working-Class Women's Autobiography.
I am currently writing a book about working-class autobiographies and my own autobiography, 'Coalminer's Daughter.'
My writing is political. It is based on real people, real lives, and real problems. However, I am not a bloody revolutionary. I do not condone violence or terrorism of any kind, discrimination, oppression, exploitation, the abuse (verbal or otherwise) or the killing of any sort of person regardless of their class, gender, sexuality, race, colour, or religion.
Thanks for looking
