    It's good to hear you're okay :)
    It can't be all that easy for your daughter it's great that she's facing the situation with you rather than fighting you over it. You've raised a wise girl!She will also value the money she earns all the more because of it.
    All the very best with your book and with job hunting! You are a very 'readable' writer, from what I've seem here, and I can well imagine your book is going to be 'unputdownable'. Be sure to let us know how everything goes!

    45 minutes ago....! I am an emotional wreck, but my (very successful) novelist friend was lovely about my MS and talked to her agent about it - and he said he was really keen to read it.....! So I tidied it up, printed it off and sent it this morning. The agent is quite a big deal in publishing, so fingers crossed... at the very worst he will let me know how I can improve it, or suggest who else may be interested... I'm so excited!! :D But now the waiting begins... my friend recommended a mild alcoholic haze to make the time pass more easily...!

    With all that nervous energy surely you should be doing some daily clicks or something - before the haze begins :D

    Good luck. Hope to hear lots of good things later (any idea how much later?)
