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.
