Well, 2023 was not a good year for me. I had my right cataract removed in October but during the operation the sac was accidentally cut. This meant I had no sight in my right eye. Very upsetting and worrying. A month later I was at the hospital again and the top surgeon operated on me and inserted a 'special lens' in my right eye which restored my sight. What a relief ! My long vision is excellent now and I only need glasses for reading
After this I was expecting 2024 to be a good year for me, but it is not turning out that way. Firstly Gardners have removed me from their publishers list as they say I am not financially viable for them. I tried negotiating with them, but received no reply to my offer. This means that the bookshop chains are unable to order any of my books as they all need a supplier e.g. Gardners (who have the monopoly having bought out all the other suppliers).
All of my books, except 'Joseph' (sold out) are available on Amazon. Unfortunately Amazon have changed their lay out and it takes people into Kindle books and you have to ask for paperbacks. Once in the correct section it then becomes difficult again as the 'buy now' button is hidden and you have to enter two other fields before you find it.
Ordering directly from me by Pay Pal is no problem. If anyone does have difficulty please contact me on my email address and I will do my best to help.
I think only ducks have appreciated all the wet weather we have had, and I have been more fortunate than many people as I live in the south. My problem has been the rain pouring through my front windows since before Christmas. At long last my builder has reappeared and scaffolding has been erected. He now has to wait for the weather to improve before he can make the necessary repairs.
With so much going on in my life during the previous two months I have not yet begun to write the next book. I have some notes and provided my next few weeks go as planned I should be able to make a start at the beginning of March. Of course, once my windows have been repaired I will need to get the front room back to rights. There always seems to be another job added to my list.
