I’ve never sold it as an ideal life—simply how I dealt with mine.Something had to change,so I changed it,and I wrote about it.
Life has taken unexpected turns.I have spoken in Parliament(议会) on food poverty,and been interviewed for an Oxfam report on food banks.Penguin has signed me to write a book.Readers keep asking if I will still live on such a tight budget.Surely yes because I will never forget the tears and happiness I have gone through.
