I’m busy working with my editor to finish my book by the end of the summer (it’s coming out next year). We spent yesterday going through lots of significant things that have happened in my life that I’d only given a couple of lines or a paragraph when it should be at least a few pages if not more. It’s hard work fully immersing yourself in times you’d rather sweep past though, so this next month will be hard work. Anyway, it’s not as hard work as many of the jobs I’ve done over the years so I know I’m in a very lucky position now. I’m writing about some of those jobs at the moment which I’m sure will ruffle some feathers! Anyway, sorry to be cryptic, you’ll just have to buy the book!!
