precise reading/proof reading

last proof read of my dad's PoW diaries, about to be published 70+ years late

[Joanne Diochon]

That's wonderful. I enjoyed reading the excerpts you've posted here, nice to see that more people will now be able to do that too.

[Jean Karvelis]

well isnt this a fascinating capture!

[JackieR]

Will the book be available in all good bookshops?? Hope you've enjoyed your proof reading

Jackie, it won't be in bookshops butt via a big online retailer of books! I'll let you know when if you like.

[Phil Sandford]

Lest we forget (my father in law was a POW in WW2 from '39 to '45 and he never spoke a word about it) That would be a fascinating read. Please do post the details of whereit can be obtained

[Janice Underwood]

@quietpurplehaze yes please

[Pat Knowles]

It looks very exciting Hazel! I like your title!

[Bep]

I hope that the book will find many readers.

[Hazel]

An evocative piece of work in progress :)

[wendy frost]

Almost there Hazel. You must be very excited.

[Denise Wood]

Terrific capture! And so wonderful that hi diary is about to be published. So will we be able to buy it here in Australia?

[Babs]

How exciting and emotional too for you I suppose to be so close to having your Dad's diaries published. Would we be able to get a copy in Australia? I know you sent me a copy on the computer but it would be great to have a hard copy too.

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

@onewing

Babs, I'll be in touch when the diary is published. You will find it quite different as Ian and I have made useful additions and changes to layout..

excellent, thankyou for your participation in our theme!

[Hazel]

@fiveplustwo

Thank you - I felt a bit overawed and ill-equipped but it turned out OK in the end!

[Peter]

Lovely record of a very special event well worth the wait even if it was a little daunting Hazel:)

[Helen]

Excellent news. Hope it's a great success

[Junko Y]

Your collage and caption effectively come together. What a way to honor your dad's past, and to make the story available to readers.
