Sarah’s Key

I think it was last year [I say think since I don’t actually know when] I was sent a book called Sarah’s Key and whether it was due to the fact that I had other stuff on my plate at the time or just me forgetting about the book, I never read it. I meant… Continue reading Sarah’s Key

The Creek

I laid myself, ever so gingerly, back on the sharp rocks.
