Examples shared were from: Virginia Woolf, John Steinbeck, Jacqueline Wilson, Sue Townsend's Adrian Mole, Anne Frank and others. Next and last episode Monday 9pm. Chat soon...

Not the same as reading a person's entire diary/journal but it's a good start. <br /><br />(Chapters are: chroniclers, travelers, pilgrims, creators, apologists, confessors) <br /><br />Wonderful book. I've read it twice and always come away fascinated. Worth the read.<br />...davedaveterryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04367790429159340198noreply@blogger.com
