HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEPHEN!

We miss you. We love you. You would be turning 25 today. I wish I could have known you as a schoolboy, as a teenager, as an adult. Your nieces Eowyn and Cosette and your Uncle Benjamin know all about you even though they've never met you. I love you Stephen John and am crying tears for you. Love your big sister Meggs xoxoxo

I do love that photo. But his birthday was 13th June. You're muddled because he died 10 days before his 3rd birthday.

I love you, Meggs, for remembering. Much love, MUM

They've asked me to: "Include your purpose in pursuing graduate study, any research you wish to pursue, and your future vocational goals." Thanks for reading this - I feel honoured by your interest in my life!! I want to write a novel, with beautiful sentences and adroitly crafted chapters.

The work I am submitting came into existence because I was applying to attend the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Belonging to this writing community would enable me to be disciplined in producing literature. The tutelage and mentoring I would receive is something I y...
