His background in primary school education is obviously a bit different but it is interesting how he notices patterns that we then see in secondary schools. I used to always write as a teenager and throughout adulthood shifting through different genres so I do feel very inspired by Stephen to continue working on your craft and to invite feedback from a writing group - watch this space!Stephen's website: https://stephenfitzsimons.com/Stephen's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stephen_fitzsimons_author/The All Good Bookshop: https://allgoodbookshop.co.uk/events (on the events page, so much interesting stuff going on!).......................................................................................................................................................pod instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anybodyeverybodytottenham/pod website : https://www.anybodyeverybodytottenham.com/pod twitter: https://twitter.com/AnybodyBodyIf you fancy supporting my hobby - buy me a coffee :)https://www.buymeacoffee.com/anybodyeveI

    Quite early on when we moved to West Green Road, my housemate went to an author reading at the Big Green Bookshop (remember those days?) and brought back the first book of the Rex Tracey series and gave it to me after he finished. I was immediately enthralled to find all these local roads and places from Haringey and the neighbourhood boroughs jumping off the pages. Being an ardent fan of crime fiction and tv didn't harm either.The author MH Baylis and I have been Twitter friends for a while (flexing) and I finally decided I am "big enough" to ask him for an interview and he said yes and was really enthusiastic, too.In this episode you will hear my pleas for a tv adaptation and what the future might hold.As it is topical there is a longer section about Prince Philip, too (unrelated to Tottenham but a bit to Rex Tracey)Matt's twitter: https://twitter.com/mhbaylisMatt's blog: https://manbelongbooks.blogspot.com/Want to buy the books and support our local bookshop? https://allgoodbookshop.co.uk/order-books-1/ols/search?keywords=baylis&sortOption=descend_by_match.....................................................................................................................................................................pod instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anybodyeverybodytottenham/pod website : https://www.anybodyeverybodytottenham.com/pod twitter: https://twitter.com/AnybodyBodyIf you fancy supporting my hobby - buy me a coffee :)https://www.buymeacoffee.com/anybodyeveI

    As a teacher having seen even just the tip of the iceberg of the trauma of looked after children, any organisation or individuals championing these young people get all my love. This is not an easy conversation and it touches on topics that make people feel uncomfortable but it is important. Okela is very thoughtful and this is a super edited version of a conversation of over an hour. We as a community or a country will always be measured by how we treat our most vulnerable people and in my book, care affected children fall into this category. I refer to the prison statistics - children in care are less than one per cent of the population yet 25% of the homeless population and the prison population have spent time in care. These are children who we have failed.
