I have four published novels, the fifth to come out soon. I started writing as soon as I learned how to read and never stopped. It took a long time for me to get published but I refused to give up.
Half way through book no five, The Road To Hell, I went blind with cataracts, this was really really terrible, to have finally acheived my dream, I was terrified to have the op as I was told there was a tiny chance I could go blind, of course with a writers imagination this became a huge chance. Six weeks ago, after finally becoming fed up of walking into walls and apologising I had the first op. It was a huge success.
This morning I had the other eye done and so far everything is working the way the first eye did. At the moment though it is terrible double vision, it takes twelve hours to settle down, so around ten o clock tonight I should know for sure if it has taken. Please ignore any typos.
Steven King, the Stand is my favorite book ever. I also Love Ian Rankins books and Ken McCoy has a brilliant series going. Just discovered brilliant new writer Lee Weeks her first book The Trophy Taker is just out and well worth a read.
Movies And TV Shows I Like:
At the moment I am hooked on Jerico, love Emmerdale.

Hi Sheila
And I thought life was tough because I get eyestrain from the computer and need a new pair of glasses. Hang on in there. Don't really like Stephen King all that much, but I love Ian Rankin.
Hi Sheila
I truly admire your tenacity. I hope your surgeries are a huge success and that you get to live your dream.
The Stand is one of my top four favorite books too.
(Along with The Handmaid's Tale, The Tomorrow File, and The Witching Hour.)
