Half way there

Thank you. I want to tell every one of you how much I appreciate your support, collectively, beacuse it's all of you who have helped me get to 49%. This has been an exciting but also stressful time. At the weekend I read something about making marriage work and one of the suggestions surprised me. It was this: say what it is you want or need. That was it - just say it - because voicing it places you in a vulnerable position. And so I realised what was uniquely stressful about trying to fund, even with the excellent partner I have in Unbound: I had to say what I needed not just to strangers but also, more stressfully, to friends. And you responded and that is why I am so very grateful.
