Of course when the lawyer rang me up and told me I just laughed and thought that my friends were playing a joke on me So I put down the phone and went in to tell my mother the joke But it wasn't a joke! All of a sudden, I was a very rich woman Well, the first thing was that I was determined that I wouldn't waste the money Of course I wanted to something for my family, but all my dad said was 'We're not leaving this house after all the work I've put into the garden!' My mother agreed so all I did was give them something towards a new car and a new greenhouse My sister was working abroad at this time and when I wrote to tell her the news and offer her some money she said it was my money and that she knew I would use it sensibly None of this really came as a surprise because they've always had a sensible attitude towards money But this left me a fortune on my hands to spend! It soon became obvious to me that much as I loved nursing, I loved writing more and that's how I got started I went to America and did a degree in creative writing I had a wonderful time and learned a great deal, not from the lecturers necessarily but mainly from other hopeful writers on the course All this was a decade ago and I've now had several volumes of poetry published I now want to something to help other young poets so I'm thinking of setting up a small publishing company which I'll call Grace Park Books after the wonderful old lady who helped me fulfill my life's ambition!
