    About this ebook

    Where do the words come from? How are you going to arrange them to say what you mean? Where does your inspiration come from to do it at all? You've been filing ideas away for years—all you've got to do is access them. Perhaps some good will come of your efforts, and you'll inspire a reader.

    Paul Whybrow

    Paul Whybrow has a young head on old shoulders. Ex many things, including being a teacher, counsellor, librarian, dispatch rider, milkman, postman, bar man, house renovator, classic vehicle restorer, courier, van driver, factory worker, project manager, live-in carer for the elderly, editor, photographer, volunteer at a community centre, play-schemes, homeless campaigns and nature conservation projects. I wrote non-fiction magazine articles for ages, but turned to creative writing in the summer of 2013. I've been my own boss for a long time, which means I'm working for an idiot and the pay is lousy—but the holidays are great. Paul Whybrow has a good heart inside a battered chest.
