Welcome Mike. You are lucky to be an author most days. I can only write when the muse strikes! Very creepy! 😁

[Fleur]

Hello there, I'm a new writer, I have co-written 2 books, Local Time is my own work. I would welcome a review for Local Time. It is a light, fun read, loaded with mayhem, chaos, the Y-generation, baby boomers and seniors as they age outrageously and disgracefully.
If you have time, Mike, can I be bold and ask if you could read and review for me? Many thanks, Fleur
