“Thank you for talking to us on 3 June. I am sure you have inspired many of us to put pen to paper. I’ve lost count of the number of people who have told me they would love to write a book. With your help and guidance they can now get started.”

Cynthia Haynes, Walsall U3A 24 August 2015

“Just to say how nice it was to meet you and Sue today and how much we enjoyed your talk. Various comments were made to me about what a good speaker you are and I’m sure you will have given the members of our growing Creative Writing Group much to think about.”

Carol Tacq, Huntingdon U3A 24 August 2015

“Just an email to say thank you for the presentation you and Sue gave us last Thursday. It was an inspiration to meet you both and you left us with much food for thought and discussion.”

“We thoroughly enjoyed your visit. Your experience was of tremendous value. We appreciated your passion for good English. Thank you once again for a very informative talk.”

“I enjoyed your talk and so did the audience judging by the number of questions afterwards, and I really liked the way it evolved naturally into a general discussion and reminiscence session about the sixties over tea and biscuits!”
