I've already written mine - a short children's story about a spider. I've even been rejected by a publisher. |

I could write a ripping yarn but I'm not a writer. I used to work for the mega rich and famous in London. I have lots of tales to tell but I'm too discreet to reveal them. I don't want to get sued either!! Louise |

Yes I would love to, given the time and someone to publish it! I thought of writing the story of my life and bringing in my family history along the way plus social history of the time. Alternatively I would like to research and write something historical. However for the time being I am earning a living! |

I'm putting fingers to keyboard and writing my life story. 'Little Mr. Nobody' I said to someone at the golf club that it would be warts and all - he bet me that it would not be the case. We shall see. It's great fun even if at the present it's just between me and my computer. |

Sounds good. I'd like to write something like a mystery book, something to do with history and based for all ages. I'm not intelligent enough though! |

Yes. I've thought about it. Many times. But sadly that's as far as I've got ! I am thinking about writing this book about a group of strangers who go off on a trek in the sahara... and one by one... they all disappear... mwahhh haahhhh ha hahaaaa |

I'd love to do it! I'm crap at grammer, and literature. I would probably contradict my story or whatever, and it would probably sound like a mixture of a childs book and an adults book! |
