Debbie has been a journalist for longer than she cares to admit! She has been freelance for the last 16 years and is deputy editor on INDEPENDENCE Daily, specialising in covering the morning press each day.
Debbie, I thought our editor Viv (Vivian Evans) was a man, because the name would be Vivien or Vivienne otherwise. But you are using the feminine pronoun to refer to Viv, I don’t know what’s going on. A photo of Viv would help.

Viv has asked me to tell you that SHE won’t post a photo for privacy reasons but that she’s definitely female and has been so for all her life!
She’s now turned off her PC and has left Independence Daily to me while she recuperates.

It was the Vivian/Vivien(ne) thing that got me, and I guessed wrong, no offence intended. We all wish her well.
