Under my pseudonym of Jane Reid:
She’s hopelessly in love; he is playing the field; the setting is a further education college somewhere in England. Will Belinda’s feelings take her to the edge of insanity? Will her manager, Steve, find any work/life balance and save his relationship? Can Hayden, the student with dyslexia, ever find confidence? Will there ever be enough chocolate?
As the object of Belinda’s feelings, Phil Sharp, fixates on a young female student, and a new, gay student, Gary, tries to find a way to fit in, tensions run high and will build to a dramatic conclusion.
In the tense, relentlessly multi-tasking world of an agricultural college, emotions, reason and nervous systems are taken to the very limits of endurance in this darkly comedic satire on unrequited love and the further education system.
