It then follows different women, covering issues such as homelessness, cancer, adoption, death, motherhood and transgender.

Nine years later, she is still writing stories whilst working in a primary school in her home city of London. When she isn’t writing, reading or watching more TV than she probably should, Aryah likes to bake cakes, buy things she doesn’t need and spend time with her family.
