Jennifer Pickup

Jennifer Pickup is a secondary school English teacher turned primary school teacher turned Nursery Manager and Special Educational Needs Co-ordinator with a love of telling stories and weaving rhymes. She lives in Wiltshire with her Chihuahua-cross rescue dog and when she isn't working she can be found dog-walking, horse-riding her beloved dressage horse, dressage judging, or glued to her laptop, writing. A lot of her work can be found on www.abctales.com - this writing community offered her valuable feedback and support over the years and was instrumental in getting her fist novel published through Unbound. Unbelievable is her first novel - http://unbound.co.uk/books/unbelievable(link is external) - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Unbelievable-Jennifer-Pickup/dp/1908717068(link is external).

My stories

Monroelogue.

Wrote this 3rd year at Uni...inspired to post it having found it tonight - after the abctales Brighton event where Tara Hanks read extracts from 'The Mmm Girl'... odd.
Cherry

July

Inspired by Ewan's 'September' - the title and the wistful quality of which is all-absorbing!

Barcelona

Barcelona (5th August 2008, 1.15am) My head is spinning, are my eyes sparkling on fire? - too much Sangria and a heart dancing on a livewire to the Mediterranean sounds of La Rambla by night;
Cherry

Sweat and Tears (but thankfully no Blood)

Inspiration point...sport...phew! I can feel the adrenalin just writing down the memory...

Tuesday Blues

Tuesday Blues (22nd July 2008, 12.17pm) The view outside is misted, veiled as eyes through tulle; my heart, clouded and full, gazes out across the city, unsure of her next move.
