possibly tak<strong>in</strong>g a fur<strong>the</strong>r four years to study medic<strong>in</strong>e or<br />

veter<strong>in</strong>ary science like her mo<strong>the</strong>r.<br />

No replies at all from agents or publishers that day. This was<br />

devastat<strong>in</strong>g – I had only got replies to 20% of my emails! More<br />

annoyance – a text that even<strong>in</strong>g from Julie’s little prat friend<br />

Sammy – ‘you horrible man’ it said – clearly <strong>more</strong> w<strong>in</strong>d-up!<br />

On <strong>the</strong> Friday <strong>the</strong> three copies of ‘Scientific Proof’ that I had<br />

ordered on Tuesday arrived by courier – very quick! I realized<br />

that I had had a massive problem <strong>with</strong> not be<strong>in</strong>g able to log on<br />

to my Lulu web account even <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong> right password; and was<br />

not gett<strong>in</strong>g any response from <strong>the</strong>ir support section, despite<br />

four or so emails and two faxes, no less, this week. So now <strong>in</strong><br />

desperation I created a totally brand new second Lulu account.<br />

That way I was able to send <strong>the</strong>m reliably a detailed email<br />

account of my problem – and vitally establish a reliable ‘ticket’<br />

and so at last get <strong>in</strong>side <strong>the</strong>ir system. However <strong>the</strong>y are<br />

claim<strong>in</strong>g to be <strong>in</strong>credibly busy <strong>the</strong>se days – <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> old days it<br />

used to take no <strong>more</strong> than 48 hours to get a reply – now it<br />

takes two whole weeks! As I type this on <strong>the</strong> <strong>next</strong> Sunday<br />

23 rd August – <strong>the</strong>re is still no reply; so I will just have to wait<br />

extremely patiently, maybe for weeks!<br />

That <strong>after</strong>noon I paid <strong>the</strong> £11 ‘benefits’ rate and luckily<br />

managed to secure one of <strong>the</strong> last couple of or few places on<br />

two college courses for guitar and SLR camera beg<strong>in</strong>ners.<br />

When Jill rang about my depot and asked whe<strong>the</strong>r I was<br />

refus<strong>in</strong>g to come to see her at Cygnet House for it, I said, no,<br />

but I had waited long enough and wanted to see <strong>the</strong> Doctor<br />

first. There was a fur<strong>the</strong>r disturbance when young idiot Sammy<br />

texted me ‘call me’ <strong>after</strong> which I left a series of rude voicemails<br />

<strong>in</strong>terspersed <strong>with</strong> rubbish texts from her. Eventually Julie<br />

texted me and warned that Sammy had texted her several<br />

times warn<strong>in</strong>g she had got her Fa<strong>the</strong>r <strong>in</strong>volved. This 20 year<br />

old prat was deliberately text<strong>in</strong>g me nasty th<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>the</strong>n blam<strong>in</strong>g<br />

me! If <strong>the</strong>y <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>the</strong> police I would be on my back foot – I<br />

already had one totally unfair Caution for Harassment!<br />

By Friday too, I had waited all week for <strong>the</strong> actual precious few<br />

replies to agents and publishers I received. So I made an email<br />
