EP43: Broken Pieces of Tomorrow

Born in London to Greek Cypriot parents Soulla Christodoulou was the first in her family to go to university and studied BA Hotel & Catering Management at Portsmouth University. Years later, after having a family of her own, she studied at Middlesex University gaining a PGCE in Business Studies and an MA in Education.

Her novels, Broken Pieces of Tomorrow and The Summer Will Come, are available on Amazon alongside her collection of poetry, Sunshine after Rain and her short story, Unlocked. Unlocked reached the top 14% of stories to receive a second read in the Spread The Word Competition in 2018. Alexander and Maria, a contemporary romance, was released in December 2020 through The Conrad Press and looks at one man’s disability and the impact it has on his life, relationships and ultimately his self-esteem and happiness.

Semi-biographical and inspired by her own marriage breakdown Broken Pieces of Tomorrow looks at themes of self-worth, psychological and emotional abuse, breaking free and cultural expectations. It has been a book club read as far as Canada and a popular choice for book bloggers worldwide.

She is a compassionate and empathetic supporter of young people. Her passion for teaching continues through private tuition of English Language and Children’s Creative Writing Classes. She offers writing support for businesses and mentoring for authors.

Her love of writing has connected her with a charity in California which she is very much involved in as a contributor of handwritten letters every month to support and give hope to women diagnosed with breast cancer. One of her letters is featured in a book Dear Friend, released in September 2017.

When asked, she will tell you she has always wanted to write and her life’s experiences, both personal and professional, have played a huge part in bringing her to where she was always meant to be; writing, supporting new writers and drinking lots of cinnamon and clove tea!
