Update!



After doing abit more reading and researching i have decided my definate theme. I was, at first, going to write about homosexuality and 'coming out' as my personal moment but after a while of thinking and researching i have decided to change my personal moment theme to domestic violence. I have already read the whole of Angela Ashworth's 'Once in a House on Fire' which includes quite a lot of domestic violence as well as child abuse.

I have been looking for literary books on this topic (Amazon!) Found a couple of books but they are not recognised authors as such so Miss Witney is going to contact the exam board and ask for some suggestions. As for other sources i am going to watch 'Sleeping With the Enemy' which is a film recommended by Miss Witney and includes domestic violence.

I have also been doing lots of research on this kind of violence, lots of websites i have looked at have facts and statistics which will help me in backing up the evidence i have found. I now need to carry on with my research and continue reading more books to increase my knowledge on this topic.
