We&#8217;ve discussed an overview of what the story might cover, and the timescales under which this would take place. He is currently putting together a general synopsis and outline, as well as some samples chapters.\u00a0I shall\u00a0have further conversations with Mike&#8217;s family to rubber stamp the approval, with a view to having a fully fledged agreement and a cast iron announcement in the coming couple of months when the full issues have been dealt with. <strong>Stay tuned!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Firstly, this is not an announcement, but I do want to update you on some very interesting developments that have occurred over the last few days.
