Re: Five Delve Into the Past
I haven't read it yet, as I'm currently writing my own Famous Five story, set around Kirrin, and I don't want to be influenced by anything I might read! I never like reading other people's stories when I'm in the middle of my own, as its easy to think 'I like that part...' and it might influence my plot! I will get to it shortly. 
It sounds very intriguing!

Re: Five Delve Into the Past
I decided to wait until all the 18 chapters were available and have copied the text and converted them into a single PDF document which I emailed to my Kindle app on my iPad so I can now read it just like a Kindle book.
I set the type to 16pt size before creating the PDF so it is a comfortable size to read and makes the document 177 pages in length, so if anybody would like a copy in this format then just ask and I will let them have a link to it on my server in a PM, which will automatically download the file which they can then save. The file size is 620KB.
I trust Ilsa and Hans-Christian don't mind me doing this.

Not at all John. It sounds like a great idea.

Re: Five Delve Into the Past
Yes I did...
Are you currently writing something else? Or is something already in stock for publication? I think you have seen how fast I can read...

Re: Five Delve Into the Past
Anything you can say about the one in stock? It's about who? Where (and when) it will come out?
