Emrys Sparks said… Hi Joe
Just in case you may have tried to contactme again, I thought I would write as I have had computer problems....this one needs replacing when funds allow...however I see you are writing a book and I would be interested to hear the details as I belong to a small Writers Group here in the UK, and we like to hear from others who enjoy writing. Perhaps you could reply to me on emrys@agas77.freeserve.co.uk as my other g mail account doesn't seem to work that well. Best wishes...Emrys

If you can search out any info and post it on the Brittany People wall, I and other interested folk would appreciate it. Cheers, Linda

Kate Ryley said… Hi Joe - thanks for the kind words on our project - it's been quite a journey and still a year or so to go - not sure the TV would've been able to air all the bad language nor would they have had the patience to wait 5 years or so to see the finish!
No - I've never smoked so not heard of that method but it worked for you and now you can pass on the good word to others. Are you registered as a therapist here in France? If so, how did you do it?
Will be in touch if I ever get the energy to do the french/english thing and pick your brains.
Take care for now
Kate
