It would be a gross understatement to say that  I've been waiting for a moment like this for quite a long time. We (me and my funders and my publishers and my readers)  are setting out on a journey which will have highs and lows, tears of joy and hopefully tears more tears of joy. I am genuinely touched by the support and encouragement I received so far, and hope that you will feel like a part of the endeavour and share in the joy as we make our way to reaching the target and achieving success.
