Thomas Raymont became pupil teacher 'not because I loved teaching, but because I loved study. Teaching gave me opportunities for study which I should not have had if I had started to learn a trade, the only alternative for me.’ https://t.co/AnWFwAkvp7

Chlldhood Memories - 1912 Onwards by Nora Lumb.

Written in her sixties, Nora vividly evokes growing up in #Sunderland during and after #WW1

@LivesRebekah has done a fab job of transcribing Nora's memoir @BrunelSpecColl for @Writing__Lives @JMUEnglish

[Writing Lives @Writing__Lives]

Our #writinglives students sometimes track down living relatives, but @JMUEnglish student @Tomwritinglive1 managed to locate one of the key characters in his author's memoir - the Paddington pub where Letitia Simpson (b. 1926) grew up.

Don't forget to check out the other author blogs on #WritingLives. I recommend @PocknellRosa and @shughes2019 blogs. Both students have been successful in tracking relatives of their author.
