Hallo, I am the chairman of Cleveleys Writers circle in Lancashire England and we meet twice a month to read pre-selected subjects for a short story or poem. There are about twenty members and also a small off shoot of 6 members who we call WORDSMITHS WITH A SONG who we go out to the Hospice & Hospitals and entertain with a song and humourous poems. Well thats enough of an introduction from Majinka.

Since 2010, I have resigned a Chairman of Cleveleys Writers and now have the role of President. which gives me more time to write. I have published 2 novels of a trilogy, The house of Cavendish~ Outroads and The house of Cavendish~ Preston Chamade. Both are available on Amazon and a third history book 'The Secret History of Christianity'.
This year I want to complete the trilogy and then have a rest. At 79 I ned one.

Congratulations on keeping yourself busy at 79! I don't know what your plans are for your upcoming books, but you should be aware that Strategic Publishing has numerous warning flags, including an extensive write-up at Writers Beware and an investigation and legal action by the Florida Attorney General.

Thanks for the heads up...I am getting suspicious of Strategic because they are playing fast and loose with me . The are removing my website if I don't up my subscription, up till now it was part of my publishing contract.
so i am going to republish as Kindle books in the UK , Cost me about £80 each book and they will get put onto Amazon for me.
