If anyone wants a writer-editor-typist-assistant on temporary or permanent basis, please give me a shout. I'm very flexible -- if all you need is a couple of hours, I'm happy to do that; and my services may well be more affordable than you think. My CV is here, and you can contact me by email at clare@claregrant.me.uk.
Also -- I'm planning to put Google Adsense up to see if that brings in a little money. I will also be putting Amazon Associates links on any books I mention. I'll try to make it as unobtrusive as possible, but I hope you'll support me in this.
