The travels of Mary Loosemore

Author: Liu Hong

Startling Moon – Liu Hong

The tale of a northern Chinese girl growing up in a remote town, going to university in the south, and then starting her working life in Beijing in the late 1980s and the Tiannamen Square massacre. It reads as an autobiography, and maybe it is.

About Me

Born and brought up in Solihull, I studied at St Andrews and in Chester before moving to live and work in London. In 2020 I relocated to Herefordshire.

I’ve done a variety of jobs in the legal sector, focusing on the knowledge management and technology side of things since 2000. You’ll find details on LinkedIn.

SparklyTrainers is about my world outside work. As you’ll see, I love to travel, take photos and read.

My email is [my firstname] @ [my surname].com
