It is so wonderful to know that my books give people so much joy. Sometimes when I feel a bit down I can doubt that what I do has very much impact on the world. I&#8217;m not a doctor or a nurse, or a teacher, changing people&#8217;s lives in a very tangible way. However, if my books help people to learn to relax and gain enjoyment from a new skill, I think that&#8217;s pretty fantastic!<\/p>\n<p>PS. Sorry there was no post yesterday.
