Tuesday Notes

 I've been working on Bodie Best's website this morning and afternoon. I've researched more relevant links which are now online at http://www.richardhill.co.uk/bodie/links.html

Today, I walked further than I have since my accident, albeit in slow short steps with the aid of a walking frame. I walked about 400 metres.

I'm doing a 'one-off' course on memoir writing with CityLit on Thursday evening. I planned to write my own life story when I originally booked it, but I've since decided to write my first book, 'Bodie Best'. Hopefully, this taster will give me some good pointers.

If you know Bodie, please get in touch with any stories about him. Email us at bodiebest@mail.com
