Split

A Book by James Hanna-Magill

Creative Non-Fiction. A book which seeks to draw the reader in by telling them a story, only in the end to deliver a message in the interests of a moral cause, which is close to my heart.

Author's Note

Dear All

I would be grateful to any of you who choose to read my writing, to get round in due course to reviewing and critiquing this, my novel 'Split' which I have already written, which I am drip feeding in here chapter by chapter and is now on here in its entirety.

I am seeking any help you can give me, by way of comment / critique, whether in overview or in its detail, as I edit it with a view to publication.

It is what might be best described as 'creative non-fiction'.

My interest in getting it out there is less for my own sake, more in the interests of others. It is a story with a moral cause.

It has been reviewed by a London City agent who believes it has much merit. Indeed he commented that it was strong material and that he was moved by it. However he is not taking on any new authors at present.

He and I agree it needs work before I can resubmit it to an agent who is taking on new writers and to whom he may direct me in due course.

Fingers crossed!

With my best wishes and thanks

James

My dearest James, I am embarking on the journey through Split. My muse has hushed for a spell and I hope to get through several chapters (with comments) today.

Hi James,
This is a heartfelt story you presented. A sort of autobiography with psychoanalysis of which you would like to be viewed without hesitation to the public. A reality narrated of which you are recovering from the shadow of unknown and beyond control by your mind that affected your personal norm before. A highly recommended novel.
However there's one thing I note in Part Five, Chapter Two.
You wrote - It was now fast approaching 9 AM ..............drafts of " Spilt " into carrier bag. Or, maybe I misread it the way I type it - maybe - It is now fast approaching 9 AM - Or, 9 AM is fast approaching ............. drafts of "Spilt " into carrier. Whatever ? The only thing I am concerned of is the word you wrote " Spilt " do you mean it that way. " Spilt " past tense of spill. Or you mean your book " Spilt ". That's the only thing I noted. Check that please, if you don't mind.

Good Luck to your book.
