I am busy at the moment working to meet the Saturday evening deadline for the Winter Bulletin Book. I have just finished updating the Dark Horses section and hope later to make a start on the preview of the King … Read More »

I readily concede that I found it a struggle to write the Online Preview for Hennessy day. In the end, with almost 4,000 words completed, I felt that I would be lucky to make my clients a profit but, thankfully, … Read More »
