Writing a Book

Morning WDJ,

I haven't thought of writing my own, but i think it is a good idea. Our own story would be fairly short, but I have read a couple of books around women in cyber security, where they get a handful of pages each to give their story. I wonder if that would be feasible?

Knowing what I know now, I would certainly buy a copy, just to see what others went through, and may show us all that there is a lot if commonality.

If, however, I got is at diagnosis time, I would read it, and wonder how I would cope. Turns out like all of us, we are stronger than we think.

I think amazon do a self publishing thing, even if it is just a kindle version. Get high enough in the charts and you might be able to get a publisher to take it to physical form.

If you chose to write it good luck. I didn't take notes in a diary, but a lot of it is still very much fresh in my head

My wife kept a diary with the support of WOW  (written/verbal/visual) of her journey from diagnosis to the final days of her life she used Substack to document her experiences 

Wimp that I am, I'm not yet ready emotionally to read everything she recorded 

After a poor experience with a oncology nurse she also got involved in a project addressing how the poor choice of words can impact on a person/patients experience.
