Well! So much food for thought, here I need to fast a while from all other sources of intellectual stimulation... your feedback is 1,000 times better than the MA creative writing tutors whose course I left after 2 weeks last year.

I will respond in more detail when I am less tired... organising things for Extinction Rebellion bus tour here in the UK and suffering form lack of sleep at the mo!

So let me say, a big big thank you for your ever so generous and thoughtful comments ... Why would I feel hurt? I feel blessed that you took the time to think about how I can improve... `you words are very encouraging and affirming.

Sending you a big HUG!
