I'm what they used to call a "self-starter." Very much an entrepreneur; mature, experienced, confident and widely-traveled. A go-to guy, a decision-maker, a just-do-it man when it comes to creative problem-solving, business leadership and people skills. I've owned or been a partner in several businesses, have graduated in two professions, and have several diplomas from the school of life. It's been my great good fortune to have had a rich and interesting business (and life) experience. My wife and I have both had successful corporate careers, and have reached the stage in life where we're able to choose to do what we want to do. And what I especially love to do is to both read and write. I find the apt word, the neat turn of phrase extremely satisfying. For whatever reason, I've NEVER experienced writer's block.

Though Richard suffered some personal setbacks during the period which affected his normal timeliness, he remained in contact with me and provided updates so I wasn't out of the loop. The quality of Richard's work has not suffered and I am happy with the product so far.

Initial work completed is good quality and reads well, I look forward to future chapters. Richard has been very patient while I attempt to get all the information to him, some difficulties from both ends experienced. Frank discussion of expectations exchanged, hopefully fixed for the future. I was disappointed with an unexpected additional quote from Richard for an amount I couldn't substantiate, which I subsequently declined.

Richard has been great at organising this initial stage of the project, he is in regular communication with me and keeps things moving. Well done so far.
