Well, if you want any discerning people to read your book first and give you their opinion, you know just who to turn to, we are all avidly awaiting the fruits of your efforts.

My daughter's dissertation for her BSc was done when he was working at a local hospital in the ward for mentally disturbed people and people with dementia who had gone there for assessment, and she had to let the hospital have a copy of it as well as part of the contract for working there. She duly handed it in to the Uni and to the hospital, and the next thing we knew was that chunks of it were published in the local paper regarding the practices in that particular ward (she was very scathing) and there was a huge enquiry about the ward and hospital practices, and I think heads rolled. She was shocked, and also a bit glad, about the outcome as that had never been her intention, but the power of the written word, especially when passion is involved as was her case, can move mountains!

Anyway, we are anticipating your written word!
