I always say of writing that “you can do it if you really want
to but it’s a big ‘if’.” It can seem a little ludicrous sometimes. You spend
hours and days on something that may never be read by someone else. You may never
really feel that you earn enough from the writing to justify spending more time
on it. Even those who do become rich and famous often have a long hard slog
before that happens. So IF we’re to battle on we need to stay positive. Yes, it’s
a very big IF.

September 2015 Newsletter
It’s that time of year again. We had our induction week at the university last week. It’s always good to meet the new first years and to welcome back returning second and third years. This year there were very few who didn’t come to the event. Most of them also seem to have logged on to our Virtual Learning Environment, Blackboard, have used their student email and have accessed the library.
I’ve particularly enjoyed teaching my first lecture and my first seminar – on Introduction to Children’s Literature. I really enjoy that interaction with the students and the material.
