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!
