About Me:

I am an eclectic reader. Currently, my interest is in women authors of crime and science fiction. I am a teacher of secondary students who have emotional and behavioural difficulties, most of whom take drugs and are involved in criminal activity. I am married, love dogs but have an allergy that means I can't get one (sob), and I am on Facebook.
