This is a collection of 19 short stories on being human. The main characters are, depending on your point of view, foolish, sad, crazy - or heroic. But all are quietly engaged in the difficult process of being alive and finding their way through life. The stories span from the 1950s into the near future and reflect the nature of the times. None are 'true' - although, like many short stories, they based on memory fragments from the author's past.

EBOOK: How to Improve your Assignment Results

There is also a vital section on how to be more creative in assignments as well as a chapter on where to go for more help. This is an essential companion for all students who are not sure how to address the assignment feedback raised by their lecturer. It is also key reading for those who give feedback to students.

The truth is what you want it to be. Bryan Young is an unconventional and challenging teacher in a junior school, popular with the pupils, but at odds with the head teacher, his deputy, and the school priest. Bryan's world is shattered when he is falsely accused of sexual misconduct by three female pupils, and a parent. He is suspended from school and subject to a police and internal investigation. His previous behaviour is now misinterpreted and moulded to fit the accusations against him, including those made by a colleague he trusted. But Bryan's behaviour has also contributed to the accusations - and he is faced with the choice of revealing the truth of what happened, but at the cost of destroying his professional credibility, and his relationship with his partner and their child.
