Truth be told, I am a rather poor writer and much of what I have produced in the past has been frightfully bad.
But there is much to be said for perseverance and so I shall take heart from the immortal words of Lord Alfred Tennyson: "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield".
P.S: I shan't ever disclose my full name - middle names and all - so please don't ask. It really would make you bristle, if you haven't already.
