Linda - self portrait with ipod
I was born in Yorkshire, England, and have a degree in Psychology. I have worked in mental health, as a personal assistant in industry, and as an English teacher and translator in Italy. My interests are wide ranging and include genealogy, history, archaeology, photography and digital imaging, music, travel, and, of course, creative writing. I am currently working on a novel and screenplay and enjoy writing informative articles such as these for suite101.
