For all those people now faced with the prospect of having to self isolate and wondering how to pass the time, can I suggest doing something that is interesting, enjoyable, educational and cheap.
Why not try writing a novel based on your own life and times.
This is something that I started doing in 1988. It was inspired initially by three things: firstly my interest and knowledge of rugby league, its history and many characters, my family tree going back to 1777 and the old saying about work that "They could write a book about this place. It would be a best seller."
Since then I have gone on to write half a million words in six novels and based on my experiences doing this I have just written some advice and guidelines on how to get started.

wgeofflee@gmail.com with your location and club supported and I'll send you a copy.
However if you like to spend time first reading one of my novels, then I suggest my latest which is called "Three Good Years". It is set between 2006 and 2008 and with a background of work, family life, saving the NHS and Rugby League.
