Dear Sir, I have been a fan of your work for over twenty years. I was on a school trip to the library, borrowed Sharpe’s Rifles. These books have inspired me to keep writing. I doubt I’ll ever have a book published but I keep at it. I was happy to discover your web site and the useful advice for people such as my self who want to become published. I wanted say many thanks for your stories, yes the Sharpe series is my favourite, and the encouragement you give to budding authors. Jacen
