Just after you replied I think but you know about my technological ineptitude.

I will send what I have done now.

Sharron did you get my reply after reading the first part? You didn't reply so I am wondering if you got it.

Sharron If you want to send it to me I will read it for you if you just want an opinion. I have done some proof reading but I think what you want at the moment is somebody to see if you are on the right track. If you want me to read it I will pm you my email address.

Never officially been a proof reader - but proof read all the stuff we used for courses when I worked for a department training care workers.

It's still not quite 3.000 words. Can't think it would take long.

Really I just want a bit of feedback at the moment.

Sharron .................

we're going away in 2 days and won't be back until early January, otherwise I would say send it to me. I'd be very happy to do it.


I worked for many years as a proof reader and editor :-)


BUT you'd have to wait until the first week in January :-(

Well done for starting Sharron. I was only saying to someone yesterday about your stories of Fred's escapades, did your ears burn?

I am sure you will find help with the proof reading, everyone will want a first read lol

Isn't it typical. You get persuaded to do something and the minute you need help........

But it is a big job just before Christmas. Sharon - if nobody with any experience takes it on then pm me after the holiday.

I have started to write up about Fred's stroke. It is flowing quite well. I am only doing the intro at the moment but the time feels right.

Would anybody like to proof read for me? There are only abut 1500 words at the moment.
