International Women’s Day 2021 – fighting to prove a woman’s worth.

March 7, 2021

I wrote about this last year, see https://rebeccabrynblog.wordpress.com/2020/03/08/the-inequalities-that-inspired/ and much has changed since then. The pandemic has turned all our lives upside-down. So how have I spent my year in lockdown? I finished my work-in-progress, The Chainmakers’ Daughter, the story of the white slaves of England – the women chainmakers who went on a ten-week … More International Women’s Day 2021 – fighting to prove a woman’s worth.

The March of Death – Holocaust Memorial Day

January 25, 2021

Holocaust Memorial Day marks the liberation, on January 27th 1945, of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the Nazi death camp in Poland, by the Russian 60th Army.

The Christmas Grouch.

December 17, 2020

I freely admit it. I’m the grumpiest person around when it comes to Christmas. The thing I hate most, apart from the incessant Christmas songs, the hype, and the commercialism, is writing Christmas cards. I moan my way through it evey year, and this year, with Covid and the risk of spreading the virus, I … More The Christmas Grouch.

The inequalities that inspired a revolution. International Women’s Day 2020

March 8, 2020

I don’t consider myself to be a women’s libber, and had I lived in the early 1900s, I’m not sure I’d have had the courage of the likes of Mary Macarthur or Emily Pankhurst, but I have always been keenly aware of women being viewed as second-class citizens. I didn’t question it – it’s how … More The inequalities that inspired a revolution. International Women’s Day 2020

Honouring the Fallen

November 9, 2019

It seems to me that the best way of honouring the fallen of two world wars is not to forget their sacrifice and have some understanding of what they went through. ‘Lest we Forget’ is written large on many memorials for a very good reason, but what do most of us actually know about the … More Honouring the Fallen

Mayhem, Maria, & Music

February 14, 2021

Amazon Three Against The World started life as a book my “cover girl” Maria, would be allowed to read. In a word, clean.

Scams and generosity – the eternal struggle for good over evil.

February 13, 2021

Yesterday, I had three attempted scams on my finances. The first was someone purporting to be Amazon – an e-mail saying I’d ordered a 76″ TV at a cost of in the region of $1700.
