I'm a writer and soap seller living in Bristol, and love nothing more than a bit of post that isn't a bill or bank letter! I currently live with a gorgeous working cocker spaniel called Charley, who will be 12 years old this year. I left university a couple of years ago now, although I didn't get my full degree, I learned an awful lot about myself and about my craft as a writer in the process. I'm now working on my own literary projects, as well as working for the ethical soap company Lush, as a happy person selling happy soap! I grew up in Portsmouth, a coastal town with strong naval links, which I loved. Living in Bristol where there is so much history and culture, as well as having connections to Bath and the countryside of Somerset and Wiltshire, means that there is inspiration wherever I go! On my days off you can either find me at the local Victorian garden cemetery, or going through the city of Bristol trying to find new places of historical interest to visit.

Tell me lots of cool stuff about your country, culture. Maybe even share with me a story from the culture that you think I'd love. I love letters too, so feel free to send me those as well, though I'll need a postcard/picture that I can submit for the website! I'm also happy to reply, if you provide me with an address, of course!

I adore all postcards, especially ones that are literary, arty or vintage! I love pinups, and cats so postcards with those are very appreciated!
