Call for Essays/New Journal

[Dean Bowman]

Dear David,

I'm so glad to see that you have successfully gotten this off the
ground. I'm afraid i wasn't much help in the end. I apologise for
being out of touch for so long, but as Luke may have mentioned i have
been quite ill with depression and anxiety recently, fortunately i am
now feeling much better. Anyway best of luck putting the thing
together and if you do need a little help on anything do let me know.
Perhaps i may contribute something in the future.

Regards,
Dean
