Hello, I'm Connor Whiteley, I am an 18-year-old who loves to write creatively, and I wrote my Brownsea trilogy when I was 14 years old after I went to Brownsea Island on a scout camp. At the camp, I started to think about how all the broken tiles and pottery got there and somehow a trilogy got created.Moreover, I love writing fantasy and sci-fi novels because you’re only limited by your imagination.In addition, I'm was an Explorer Scout and I love camping, sailing and other outdoor activities as well as cooking.Furthermore, I do quite a bit of charity work as well. For example: in early 2018 I was a part of a youth panel which was involved in creating a report with research to try and get government funding for organised youth groups and through this panel. I was invited to Prince Charles’ 70th birthday party and how some of us got in the royal photograph.Finally, I am going to university and I hope to get my doctorate in clinical psychology in a few years.

THINKING OF A NUMBER

18th October 2022

Canterbury, England

Now I have always loved playing games, sports and basically whatever I can so I can have a little fun. Back in World War two, I was extremely good at poker and blackjack and a few other card games, but as I grew in my wisdom (something that turns out happens very naturally for superheroes) I started to turn my attention towards board games and now I only play drinking games on the weekend with a few of my best friends.

I suppose that’s one of the advantages of being a superhero that had lived for over a hundred and fifty years and thankfully doesn’t look a day over thirty. And I mean, that only has to be a good thing, can you imagine the wrinkles I would have if I did age?

No, no, no that would be simply awful.

You see my name is Matilda Plum, a superhero in the Psychology, Counselling and Therapy sector so it’s my very fun job to travel around making sure people are okay, solve their difficulties and sometimes stop evil things from happening.

And sometimes I get to play games with the superheroes, and even Gods and Goddesses from the Gambling sector. That really is fun, but sadly it wasn’t
