What would happen if we could erase our bad memories and keep them locked away, bounded between the covers of a book? Bridget Collins explores this concept in 'The Binding'.

The value of people’s stories
People's stories have tremendous value, but it's important to think about how we think and react towards others' stories...
Lunch with dad
'Lunchtime’ means different things to different people and the way people spend their lunchtime can give you a sneak peek into their lives. If I’m in a restaurant or cafe during lunchtime, I’m always curious to see how people react towards their meals. A couple of weeks ago I was privileged enough to witness the most adorable family-lunch in a cafe.
The first book I wrote was bad, but it doesn’t matter
My first book was bad, but it doesn't matter because it turned out to be valuable in other ways. Here's why...
The trouble with ‘going home’
Is it possible for home to be in two different places at the same time? I think if you ask most people who moved from one country to another, the answer would be 'yes'.

Explore Prague at Night
Prague is a beautiful city and a top choice for many visitors as it offers a variety of sites and attractions at relatively reasonable prices. Unfortunately, if you're visiting in high season you have to face the jostling crowds. Although there will always be lots of people about, we found that exploring the city centre at night not only meant less camera wielding tourists, but it also gave us a chance to experience Prague's dream-like atmosphere. Here's why it's worth exploring Prague at night.
Dreams, Dirt and Personal Growth

This is the story of how a fabulous corporate girl turned into a go-getter, hands-dirty, full-time mom, with an enormous vegetable garden and a big heart.
life lessons (from your 20’s)
1 April 2019. Today I'm celebrating my 30th birthday! So, I wrote a little something to capture all the valuable life lessons I've learnt during my 20's. Perhaps you can relate...
Fall in love with Cassis
It was in dreamy Cassis, a town nestled between mountains on the Azure Coast, where the meaning of true love was revealed to me.
Pictures & Poems – When sisters collaborate
My sister’s an extremely talented artist and I’ve always admired her ability to catch a moment or emotion with her art. We’d been talking about collaborating on a project, so I sent her some poems and she worked on illustrations to accompany them. Her illustrations developed and shaped the stories in a completely new way, which allowed me to reduce the poems to their bare essence.
