Hello Bernard,

History only lives in the minds of those alive today and I think you keep a beat in that particular heart better than anyone so well done and thanks.

I’d like to ask your advice regarding when to make an approach to an agent or publisher while working on a book. Indeed, is it best to only do that once the thing is, to first draft stage at least, finished?

I’m progressing nicely on what I’m writing and am over half way through. I still need to move a few Hospitallers from Outremer to Languedoc but I can manage that, and wonder at what point the benefit of input from an agent or publisher should be sought?

I’d really appreciate any thoughts you may have.

Many thanks

Guy Warner-Gladish
