Something to do if you or a relative is now self isolating. : Fri Apr 03, 2020 8:55 pm
For all those people now faced with the prospect of having to self isolate and wondering how best to spend the time, can I suggest something that is interesting, educational, enjoyable and cheap. It is to try to write a novel based on your own life and times.
This is something that I started to do in 1988. It was inspired by three things: firstly my interest and knowledge of rugby league, its history and its many characters, having a family tree going back to 1777 and the old saying about work that "They could write a book about this place. It would be a best seller." Recently I have written some guidelines on how to do this. Contact me at wgeofflee@gmail.com and I'll send them to you. However if you would first like to read one of my six novels, can I suggest the latest. It is called "Three Good Years" and is set during the 2006, 07 and 08 seasons with a background of Work, Family Life, Saving The NHS and Rugby League. It is available from London League Publications. Visit them at http://www.llpshop.co.uk. Then click on Books and then Fiction. |
