I've just sent her the manuscript of my book that I am writing. She said she laughed, cried and was annoyed at bits of it, I think she's upset because there are things a bit too close to the knuckle...It's a true story about my life/journey, I even toned it down because I knew she wouldn't like it, but it is all the truth. She said she would never have said anything that horrible to me, (which is in the text) But she did, I got the brunt of everything because I'm a lot like my Dad, and I would remind her of him. She never had a good word to say about Dad and I don't like that, but I have had to live with it the whole of my life and she still does it now, he's been passed away 15 years this September. Anybody want to publish me...Please? ! ! ! Nah, really, I'm printing my own and see how they go first. xxx
