As my journey into self publication continues I have received so many kind comments about the extracts that i have shared from people all over the world. My belief that this book will be cherished continues to grow. I feel like the book is almost ready to go out into the world and compete for its own space on peoples book shelves. It is in the final stages of preparation. The copy setting is being done and the progress with the cover is coming along really well. The book is nearly ready …

Getting a book to the point where publication is on the horizon is like climbing a mountain ! I have continued to be lucky on this journey and fortunately met some more great people ! I am very grateful to my Editor who has been incredibly encouraging despite describing herself as someone not “famed for tact”. I am also very grateful for my Cover Designer. Things are coming together and the book is taking shape.

Thank you for your interest so far. I am hopeful that my story will remind you of the days you have already spent climbing Croagh Patrick. I met a taxi driver who told me that he climbed it when his children were small and that was nearly 20 years ago and he had it on the long finger to climb again one day. The Reek has cast its spell upon me and I intend to keep on climbing. If you have never made the trip to the West then I hope that this book will inspire you to climb the Reek and share a kind word with a stranger…..
