Your name is a shield, your heart is your enemy, your breath is fast but will slow down- my reputation is gone and its ALL down to you!! Only MY reputation; YOU are dead to me now! From Dad

Short Story~ I entered this story for the BBC Radio 2 500 words writing competition here in the UK. I was one of the 25 finalists in my age group out of a 125,000 that entered. I had to go down to London, in Shakespeare's Globe for the results. I got to meet celebrities like: Julie Walters, Tom Hiddleston, Warwick Davis, Raleigh Ritchie, Nick Jones, Chris Evans (radio presenter) and many more! Unfortunately I was not a winner, but still got a shout out. I thought that it would be a nice idea to share the story with you guys, you can also go to the BBC Radio 2 500 words website to find out more about the day! http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00rfvk1 Look out for the name Emily Baxter (that's me!)

This story is based on how (or at least to my knowledge) women and families were affected by the suffragette movement in the early 20th centuary.

This is just a short story I had to write for school. I might make it into a longer version.
