- How David got started. He’s been writing for a long time but in 2005 he started seriously writing with the aim of publication.

After 18 months he was feeling quite down about the project and the continued rejection. In Christmas 2010, he heard from a NY agent who was interested, but then he never heard from him again. This is not an unusual story but David felt disappointed and in a negative place.
