    Me too. It's not just pubs either. I went to see Mostly Autumn (my namesake - now you know) in Rotherham at a CRS gig - a dedicated live music venue - and people were talking even over the quiet, deeply emotional bits. WHY oh WHY do they ...

    Autumn Nothing else I'd rather be doing on this fine bank hol than writing my novel, while watching the snooker final, with my dog cuddled up next to me sound asleep...

    That would've been a dream gig Alan, but Marillion didn't form until 1981... wonder who it was you saw??? Actually, that gig might be possible now as Marillion are still going (minus Fish, so a slightly inferior line-up IMO) and Yes have recently ...

    Thanks for asking, but no real news. He stayed in the ICT suite at lunchtime with his teacher, but he obviously can't do that every day. Meantime his brother told us last night who it is, it's a boy in our road who me and his dad have had murder with his parents before, they don't give a **** so I'm left wondering how best to tackle this. Anyhoo, just quietly seething won't do it so it'll probably come to blows.

    I reckon my brain was on idle last night - of course you would promote your book, you tried to get it published after all! Must have switched off my sense of humour, too, it didn't even occur to me that you were joking. I do hope you'll win, though!

    Hi Autumn, publicity might help you reach out to more women desperately looking for someone or something helping them make sense of what's happening to them and, above all, give them hope. I understand your reticence, but maybe it would be worth reconsidering?
