| Introduction | I was recently described as being logical, amusing and mildly egotistical. Despite this coming from a young lady at the tender age of fifteen it is a summation which I find to be, somewhat unnervingly, perceptive. Professionally, the majority of my career to date has been spent as a help desk/technical support operator and training manager for a retail media company. I have written and been published previously on a small scale and have done a fair amount of work producing text for sales/marketing literature. Yes, I regret to say I have been responsible for some of those irritating items of junk mail which land on the doormat all too regularly. Time to take my abilities more seriously. In a less than two year period I endured the breakdown of my marriage, suffered ill mental health followed by being made redundant at work resulting in my house being repossessed. A set of circumstances that could bestow anyone. On 10th March 2008 I became homeless. |
