I am trying to help people and my wife by mavbe selling a few ebooks we found there werent many around after my stroke probably thousands now my first book was an honest account of my experience of my stroke what I have remembered about the day and a history of my life prestroke . as an ebook its cheap for someone to buy and has really done wonders for me. they are being edited at the moment. next being a teacher I loved reading to the chilgren Ive written a trilogy using a creative writing lesson I gave the children. If they could do it why couldnt I luckily an artist freind has illustrated the first one that is now published I paid for that Its expensive but was worth it for me to focus and give me purpose and self esteem I have sold one ebook and a close friend is buying a real one for his grand daughter. when all are illustrated I may approach a publisher.

Hi Petehat,

Just a reminder - if you could use the private message feature on here that'd be much appreciated, rather than posting an email address on the public forum. Just click on a username then the 'Send a message' button on the left of the screen.

Best wishes,

Headway.
