Alexandra Sutton, 22, Manchester.
I recently graduated from Oxford, and I am now freelancing as a writer and researcher in all the types of media. I have a three-part unemployment policy - say yes to everything, write daily, intersperse with television.
This blog is an attempt to create a coherent and creative body of work from the scribbles and scraps of my writing that are floating in the ether. This is not a manifesto, nor is it a diary.
I'm interested in the way the world works, and the ways in which it doesn't. So many important questions are patterned in the individual - to learn about people is to attempt to find a few answers. I also look to film, literature, and music for stories and ideas - here you'll find a mix of review, comment and general thoughts.
Choose
by Carl Sandburg
THE single clenched fist lifted and ready,
Or the open asking hand held out and waiting.
Choose:
For we meet by one or the other.
My face. I'm not always this brooding, I was counting change.
