Project Description
i have a real life story on how my life has been from the very first day of leg being amputated, i have alot of documentation to say what i say is true ! and really did and has happened, and alot has happened to me since my amputation in 1989 , i am 40 years old born in 1968. I have started to write a book myself but i have had no experience in this at ALL nor do i have alot of spare money, so i would be interested in making a deal that suits all !! i can have roughly have 40 chapters in the book, i have appeared in the daily mail in 2000 reaching the last stage of a modelling competition and i have met Heather (McArtney) Mills several times before she married sir paul martney ! since losing my leg 20 years ago alot has happened and when i briefly tell people some of my stories they ALL say Blimey you should write a book, so i am trying lol lol the contents of the book will have everything you can imagine a fictional book would contain but in my book all would be true with several things that can be proved with documents. I think that if people buy the book none of them would be disappointed, i have so many things to write i need someone to help me !!

Best wishes,
Pat Nurse

Hi Gino,

Sorry I haven't been in touch but I have been so busy with work, I haven't found time to call. Which has led me to believe I can't invest the time required to write your book.

Sorry, I would have enjoyed it I'm sure but I think you probably need someone who can dedicate more time to it than I can.

Good luck with it!
Amanda

Hi Gino,

I will give you a call but have been very busy, which is why I haven't contacted you yet. I work full time and then freelance in my spare time so I need to think realistically about how long it would take me to complete this project for you before bidding.

A tape! What will I play it on?!?! :-)

I have a day off on Friday so will try and get hold of you then to chat about this project.

Kind regards,
Amanda

hi Amanda, my hotmale.comm , i thought you would have contacted me as all the info is there in previous correspondence, i think it is near impossible to put a fair estimate of how much for you too charge !!! i\'ve just got a dictaphone and i will try to put everything on tape, (no i am not digital lol lol lol ) i\'ve had so many people wanting to write this book and making offers, i don\'t know who to trust etc.the directory is ok as well
regards
Gino

Thanks for the extra info, Gino. I Googled you and came across your profile on the Amputees in Action website.

I'll be putting in a bid on your project as soon as I've figured out what to charge!

Kind regards,
Amanda

hi amanda i did not answer all your questions !
i have never told my stories to anyone ! i have always had in mind that one day when the time was ok that i would try something, as i have already tried most things !modelling actiing working sports etc. but they are all difficult after a period. i have had articles done about me, in local papers and the daily mail but they were for specific things. i appeared on Telefon 90 briefly, Nescafe Advert , Italian guard in drama series Moseley in 98 i think and a disability magazine modelling clothes.
regards
Gino

hi Amanda, thanks for you response, my full name is ginofiorellino i live in surbiton which is very close to kingston upon thames, i am not 100% sure that i have a book that would sell which is why i need someone to see what i have to see if it can be made into a book. i think the telephone directory will confirm who i am and where i live. Reading is near Maidenhead where i used to go alot when i worked in a Vauxhall dealership in the 80\'s Henlys it was called, i\'m sure it isn\'t there anymore.i am approx 30-50 minutes away from you depending on traffic M25 lol lol lol but i can do the journey quicker from the M4 cutting across, look me up
regards
Gino

Hi Gino,

I'm in Reading and yes, I would be prepared to meet up. Where are you? Where you're located would influence how often I could meet you in person but I'd be happy to have weekly catch up calls and would provide regular progress updates via email too.

Yes, I think you have a great story to tell from what you've written in your project description and I'm keen to get involved :-)

Are there any published stories about you I could read, in real-life magazines for example?

To tell you a little about me, I currently contract to Microsoft UK as Online Editor of one of their websites and I have many years' experience of writing commercially. You can see some examples in my portfolio. But more importantly, I also write for myself and have written a number of pieces about things that have happened in my life. These haven't been published, which is why they're not in my portfolio.

I believe I could bring the writing style you're looking for to tell your story so will definitely be putting in a bid.

Kind regards,
Amanda

hi Amanda,
the length of the book would be, how long a good writer could make the book interesting to a reader using the information i have collected over the last 20 years !!! i do have alot of content to work from but again i need a good writer to make it into a book, as the way i started writing the book was in an actual way which i don't think is a good way (in my opinion) as all that i write has happened !!!. I am not the cleverest of person but i think if i had a publisher now people would be begging me to let them write the book, ( i say this smiling to myself ). i have no experience of writing books novels etc, but my life has been very unique full of every emotion you can think of.
Just a couple things i would like to ask you please. where abouts are you located ?would you be prepared to meet to discuss the content of the book as it is written ?
regards
Gino

Hi Gino,

Can you just answer a few questions for me:

- How long do you anticipate this book being - approximately would the 40 chapters be 10, 15, or 20 pages long?

- Do you already have most of the content documented as source materials to work from?

- If not, how are you proposing to provide the material?

- Do you have a publisher lined up for this book?

Thanks,
Amanda
