It was fun and easy because most of the details had been sorted out in my head, I just needed to check them with facts. Alone the way, I learned about something in our history which was fascinating.

Anyway, now that I have a history, I realise that the work I’ve already done needs to be changed because it doesn’t fit well with how things started. I know, I’ve really done everything back to front and upside down, but this has been a great learning curve for me.

What’s more, my book will satisfy the curious, the historians and those who just want to read a story. Whereas before it only targeted the last one. I’m so glad that I was pushed into doing this. I take back all those nasty things I thought when I was asked “the question”.
