…Not that long ago.

I was travelling to America, across Europe, the Middle East, the Far East meeting beggars and princes and everyone in between.

My writing peers gave me awards and respect and great reviews and advice and encouragement.

I was the first unpublished writer to be asked by four published writers to write an article for their website.

I was contacted (out of the blue) by a writer/publisher asking me to submit my work for consideration.

I was put in touch with one of the world’s greatest researchers on Joan of Arc.

I was contacted (out of the blue) by a TV company who wanted to dramatise my book.

A #famous Historical Novelist sent me a First Edition of her new book.

I had Leslie Kenton as a personal friend and mentor.

Even Diana Gabaldon took the time to write to me!

Now my work is routinely rejected. Every month for the past year.

This is not just MY story though.

I have “once-high-flying” friends with decades of experience in Acting and PR and Science. The Military, Police Force and Natural Healing. Restauranteurs, Independent Business Owners and Antique Dealers who thought for themselves and refused to lower their own standards to fit into this New One Size Fits All Globe.

Make a stand and the New World will reject y’all with zero thought and less than zero sympathy.

Once Upon A Time The World Was Mine. And Yours. And His. And Hers.
