Update #8 - Illustrated draft...and a new author in the house... Feb. 21, 2018

So today another independent publisher from the US contacted me...but I'm starting to be a little cautious about these companies - they don't charge upfront but I'm not sure they are offering what they say they will - conversations with them have left me decidedly unenthused.  I'm thinking to explore self-publishing again - or going back to the likes of Hinton House and Jessica Kingsley.  I still have about 4 publishing companies who are 'processing' my submission so a little time to wait...and in the meantime, Zeke has just shared with me the latest on the drawings...I'm blown away.  

Have a look and let me know your thoughts:

On- other news.... I'm also blown away by my son...who has decided he can write a book too.

This evening I asked him to find me a book whilst I put his brother to bed.

When I came out he told me he couldn’t find one he wanted so he was writing one…

"It's called - 'Book of Asbergers'...and its for you.  I just need some staples for the corners he says....

He then presents me with a carefully written book...in book format...with pictures...and he reads it to me....

I am now blubbing.  I need to find a way to get this out to you...and I will...but for now its my little Thing...and he says I can keep it and take it with me to 'God's Land' to remind me of him when he isn't there....
