A brief history of Bradgate Park.
Bradgate Park is a public park located in Leicestershire, England. It covers an area of 830 acres and is home to a variety of wildlife, including deer, foxes, and birds of prey. The park is known for its scenic beauty and is a popular destination for walkers, joggers, and cyclists. It is on the site of a dormant volcano and it is a truly surprising place to find on the edge of a city. It feels prehistoric, it’s rock formations ancient and wild, so different to the rest of the county it is set within. I sometimes feel like I’m entering Jurassic park, you expect to see dinosaurs or mammoths climbing their way over the rough ground.

Lily with the white, bright wings.
Once upon a time, there was a girl named Lily. She was a curious and adventurous girl who loved to explore the world around her. One day, while wandering through a forest, she stumbled upon a magical tree. She reached out to touch it and suddenly, her arms began to grow and stretch until they transformed into beautiful, majestic wings. White as snow and soft as down, so so beautiful to behold.

Beyond the Wand
I didn’t notice Tom Felton for a long time. Not him as a person, although of course I knew him for his most famous character. Draco Malfoy, along with Severus Snape and Lucius of course, was my favourite slytherin. Whilst many of my contemporaries found him slimy and bullying I saw beneath the mask he presented, I knew that Draco was not as bad as he seemed.

Witch-hunt!
I was doing some research into the witch finders of the 15th to 18th century. I was shocked to find some of the methods that they used to winkle out basically any woman who was slightly different to the cookie-cutter, good girl, good wife mould. Many of the women were much older, past the childbearing years, and therefore we are considered fairly expendable.

Phandom - and why Leroux’s Erik is my perfect monster.
This is a mood piece about one of the most controversial characters in literature and musical theatre. Love him or hate him, Erik - The phantom of the opera, never fails to inspire. Some see him as a stalker, a rapist, a madman. The toxic masculinity we woman must all escape from. Some see him as a hero, a handsome yet broken man.
