Some of you people never sleep! :o) OK, so I now know that there are some books already, but you didn't tell me the titles or authors, pretty please. Being lazy, I preferred to read someone else's story, but if it comes right down to it I guess we could cobble together a novel full of passion and adventure, of dignity and endurance, of grit and human kindness, all we need is a big name to front it and we could make, say, $4 million!! Imagine how many pink flamingoes that would buy......

I have quite a story to write. I think if you get five people to tell their stories (all different) in one book, it would be very interesting. When do we start? I'm sure the world is waiting.
