Hello, welcome to my blog

Mostly you will find, here, transcribed entries from the secret diary that I used to keep as a teenager between 1970 and 1975. I try to be honest with my transcriptions, but, just occasionally I do edit, to protect myself or others from embarrassment or some other emotion.
Also, though, I like to do a brief review of the books I have been reading, so these are interspersed throughout. I reserve the right to write blog entries, also, about other random things.
Why do I keep this blog? I don't know. I am an academic and one of my research interests is around how people construct their own identities. The diary transcriptions, and what I write about my books, are very much about revealing something of my identity.

Something I marvel at...

I'm not sure who I write this blog for. Me probably! :-)
*but* I do get such a thrill that it is read by people all over the world. When I look at my viewing statistics I can see that my blog has been accessed by an audience from 10 different countries in the last 24 hours. So there are, for example, people in Ghana, Japan, India, Brazil, Ireland who know something about my life as a 16 year old schoolgirl. I wonder how it compares with their / your experiences.
