Now that I’ve finally finished my MA in Creative Writing and I am no longer buried in Post-Its and Guides to MLA Referencing, I am keeping a promise to myself to get my web-site up and running. This, my IT guru informs me, entails populating my pages with material which gives a representation of my writing life, to date. As I have only been writing ‘properly’ for two years, I am pleased that I do at least have a publication/competition ‘history’ ready to move in to the empty, white space.

great to read your website and blog Helen – i’ll definitely visit it again and its fantastic to see you being so creative – i seem to wince at anything involving creativity and thought these days – leave that for my children! Keep it up!
