Dear Richard, how very interesting to read your reply, I shall definately read your book. My book is partly autobiographical. I was brought up in the Plymouth Brethren and certain teachings i had ,particularly about hell and the end times had a profound effect on me. for my story i chose to create my own cult partly to distance myself from the story, but incorporated these particular elements into the cultic teaching. I wanted to look particularly at the psychological effects of such teaching. i also wanted to write an optomistic story of recovery. it is very interesting to talk to you . Mary
