Jyo Fernandes is currently a seventeen year old student at Hymers College, a lovely school situated in the handsome city of Hull.

Having just completed the penultimate year of secondary education, she faces the final year with more than a little trepidation. Not in the least because she’s finally fighting her way to university, on the way dodging all the traps of AS and UCAS, to study English Literature, the pinnacle of all dreams. Appropriately, a major interest is reading, and all literature-related material, although admittedly, she does rank lowly on knowledge of Shakespeare. Her favourite book of all time remains Joseph Heller’s masterpiece “Catch 22”, for its eccentric lovability and its warped black sense of humour. In addition, her other passions include sport, and baking, the former for which she represents her school in hockey, netball and tennis. The latter, however, remains a secret pride, as she has recently created a show stopping lemon meringue pie, that not only looked b-e-a-utiful but tasted delicious.
Although having achieved little else, and being more than experience-less, Jyo is certain that this won’t hinder her for too long in her aspirations to one day become a writer, on a journey to which, this blog marks the first teensy tiny baby step.
