Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it. C.S. Lewis

Claire,
Your blog is both elegant and professional, congratulations. I am a freelance writer and stay busy doing web content writing for businesses (blogs, etc.) as well as fiction writing under the pen name John Mathews. My niche is psychological thriller / suspense books with big plots twists that keep the reader guessing until the very end. Can I submit my self-published ebooks for your review consideration? Thank you very much.

Hi Claire I used to know your family when you all lived in Cathedral Close, Norwich…I lived with the Collier family. I also remember when you shared a flat with Alistair Marseller!! ( where is he now?). I have been trying to find you for some time and then I noticed your name on your brother, Mark’s website. I would so love to get back in contact with you as so much water had passed under the bridge. (I lived near Rome for 20 years! I am so impressed by your career as an author. How talented you and Mark are. How is Giles by the way? My email address is morteraalexandra@gmail.com. I would so love to hear from you. With very best of wishes Anna (Morter)
