Carole’s Book Alphabet ~ ‘V’ is for…


'Steve Voake' Steve Voake is not just one of my favourite authors, he's also possibly one of my favourite people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. He was a lecturer on my Creative Writing course at university and always stands out when I look back on my time there. He took modules… Continue reading Carole’s Book Alphabet ~ ‘V’ is for…

I am not the girliest girl in the world but even so, I still succumb to shoe lust on occasion. Annoyingly, I have stupidly shaped feet that can't decide what size they are and are very wide so loads of gorgeous shoes either simply won't fit on my feet or else crush/rub me to death… Continue reading Pretty Please? #7 – Shooooes!
