TO THOSE WHO READ MY WORK

I know my work leaves a lot to be desired

The spellings quality pore , gamma worse

When you read my First World War story's/poems

Think of a voices of those who went through that war

Speaking back from then to you

Back then , they left school at twelfth , thirteen

Hear them , listen to them , make allowances for their lack of articulation

Throughout time, and this world, there have been great story tellers and observers of life. Each would narrate their tale in the language of their time and we, the reader or listener, would translate within our own limitations.

Mr Williams, you write in a language that is well recognised not for its failings but for the effort it takes YOU to commit your words to text. Sometimes I have struggled to understand the variances of your dyslexic writings and there are other times I have understood the flow of your words; but never have I struggled to understand the point or message within your texts and that sir, to me, is the true sign of a gifted writer. I never tire of reading your work and giving imagery to the story you relate. Thank you for that.

No, I disagree wholeheartedly... your work does not in the least leave to be desired. The spelling and grammar in your circumstances are wholly irrelevant, my friend. You are a great storyteller, I've said it before, and I'll continue to say and believe it. *hugs* xx
