You will probably never see this but I have been so compelled to write (and I never do this!)

Thank you. I consider you one of the greatest writers of our time. I first found "On Writing" a number of years ago and bought copies to give to all my aspiring writing friends. I loved that book - and your honesty was incredible. Thank you so much for sharing.

I was an only child.... my father was 48 when I was born.... and he always encouraged me to read and to love words. He always said "when you have a book in your hands, you will never be lonely" and he was so right. And your novels have been part of my life for so long.

I have always had the dream of writing (yep! Like every man and his dog, cat or whatever) and I just wrote my first! It's a novella......thanks to you...... you made novellas classy. It's nothing special but it's mine..... and I am proud of it....but for me....I wanted to leave some small legacy for my kids.......

But I will always be grateful to you.You have been a part of my life for more years than I can remember. Thank you. Honestly.

Best wishes from far north Queensland, Australia.
