    Wii. It's actually mostly written. Just need to get a publisher and the motivation to get it finished.

    Should have no problems with the former as you'll have contacts with publishers being an ex-editor,
    the latter is difficult as you'll be firmly planted in front of those gorgeous speakers and everything can wait mode.

    Getting a book published is more difficult than ever. Most publishers want celebrity bollocks or tat like Shades of Shite

    Default User name

    Many years ago when my girl friend (now wife) came round I was always in the loft. Her brother started calling me Loftman. When I needed an email address I chose Loftman as a user name for an email forwarding outfit (Bigfoot - very good) & it's stuck ever since.
