Just a wee note of thanks for your inspirational notes in The Writers and Artist yearbook 2007. This is on behalf of my wife Diane who has now for some years been writing and doubting herself as to her talents. Your comment that you should “tell a story” and not be too bogged down in all the niceties has given her a bit more self confidence. Now she has submitted a manuscript to a publisher which trust me is a huge step. Once again on behalf of myself and my wife THANK YOU. Yours sincerely John Marshall
