IN MY LOCAL JOB CENTRE,I RECENTLY DONE A POSITIVITY COURSE

.I TOLD THE WOMAN IN CHARGE,THAT AFTER 30 YEARS OF TRYING HARD TO DO MY BEST, I NOW BELIEVE, THAT PEOPLE THINK IT ISNT ENOUGH. i have worked hard and put up with so much shit, now i dont feel part of the modern world. I AM ANGRY NOW,I HAVE BEEN LET DOWN, BUT PEOPLE LIKE ME NEED A VOICE. i am now going to get help to write a book,and let people know that i am just as good as anybody else.

Well done. It is great that you are going to channel your anger into something as positive as writing a book. That's a really positive thing to do. I've always wanted to write about my experiences but never got round to it. Have you read this: 'The Secret Life of a Dyslexic' a book by Kathryn E. Livingston and Robert H. Frank. Frank is the dyslexic and Kathryn helped with the writing. It's a truly brilliant book. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in what it truly means to be dyslexic.

Good luck. Keep us posted about your progress.
