Flaps and Chats

Born in the 1960s Helen Coneyworth-Smith lives in Yorkshire. Working as an I.T. contractor and then Project Manager within the independent schools sector, a job change that has given her new challenges, which she thrives on. The author has achieved numerous Microsoft qualifications and Prince2 Project Management, along with many other various qualifications, making her well suited to this new role. After suffering bereavements, Helen has changed her life around in many ways to become more grounded and focus on her future life and aspirations. Since writing this book she has trained at Hull Truck Theatre to become a stand-up comedian, learning to write comedy sketches and performing on stage in the Hull and East Riding area, even bringing some of the experiences encountered in this book into her comedy sets. This venture of comedy has encouraged friendships and associates with like-minded people, to the extent that Helen now arranges stand-up comedy gigs in pubs and clubs in the area, all in aid of charities. A new hobby that has also piqued her interest is photography, especially wildlife, transport and of course the Humber Bridge. Helen doesn't regret experiences that have happened to her during her periods of grief and reasons that they cannot be changed, undone or forgotten. That traumatic time was endured and is remembered as short-lived, with positive and negative experiences. She knows that life is too short and is trying to focus on the future, together with her close friends and live her new, and different, best life.
