I think the things we need to hear (or read) the most come to us at the right times. I’m glad the article resonated with you.

Congratulations on publication day for All the Breaking Waves, Kerry! And thank you for sending a lifeboat full of flowers to ten thousand lonely islands with this letter. Deep bows.

I am an old age newcomer to the world of writing, having only allowed myself to try, aged 63!
Now just over 12 months later, it has taken over my life & I love it.
Your words have inspired me to keep at it. I recently completed my first novel for NanoWriMo and was having a slight wobble, wondering if I have what it takes to ‘make it’ as a writer. Deep down I knew the answer, but crisis of confidence got in the way.
I know that there are no guarantees about the future, or whether I will ever get published, but I do know that I need to keep at it.
Writing has changed my life. Thank you for helping me find the courage to keep going.
