MLF15: Simon Armitage

 Hi!

 My final event of this year's Manchester Literature Festival as a Digital Reporter was the wonderful Simon Armitage, introduced by John McAuliffe. 

 I hope you enjoy my account of the evening, which has been published on the Festival's Chapter and Verse blog.

 I've really enjoyed being part of the Festival for the third time. Long may it continue!

15,000 travel blog views!

 Hello!

 I was extremely pleased to notice that my travel blog has reached 15,000 views! As I've had it for only just over a year, I am very happy that it has reached so many people. I hope you have enjoyed sharing my adventures.

 Even though I am now back in the UK I have a few more posts about my time in Spain and France to publish on the blog so keep an eye on it!

 Thank you so much for your support.

Taking the plunge - from Wigan to Beijing

 Hello!

 I'm very happy that my article "Taking the plunge - from Wigan to Beijing", which tells of my sudden but wonderful trip to China, has been published by The Mancunion both in print and online. 

 I hope you enjoy learning about my rather surreal experience - you can find out more about it and see lots more photos on my Beijing blog.

 Thanks for reading.
