Dear Bernard
I cannot begin to express my sadness on reading about the health problems you and Judy have faced recently, which I read in your apology to your fans. As a long time fan who even before I started reading your books, grew up listening to my mum telling me about your stories, I just want to say that an apology isn’t necessary.
The health and wellbeing of you and Judy comes before anything else, and that includes the most devoted of your fans. It’s important for both of you to take your time and get better, and even if you never wrote another book again, us fans are still going to support, love and adore your work.
Wishing you and Judy all the best.
Damien Silson
