What are you currently working on?
Colin Guest I am going through my memoir Follow in the Tigerman's Footsteps, as although I had it edited, I later found the result was not as good as it should have been. Also, the publishing company put a very high price on the print version. I will most likely split the book into three smaller books at a far cheaper cost.
