    Thanks for the message, Karen.
    We have been away. As we had to travel to a rather sad funeral (sad in the sense because she was so much younger than us - the age of our sons' generation) we stayed on in Derbyshire for a 10 day caravan break. It gave me time to think about what I am doing and what really matters in life. publishing and marketing came low on the list! Writing? At this moment in time I am wondering why I do it. Life is for living not sitting in front of a computer!
