[snipped]
The day of my final victory will be forever etched in my mind. It’s undoubtedly the greatest challenge I have ever faced and the pressure at times felt insuperable. I often felt as if I was hanging on the edge of chaos, almost descending into it. I eventually faced a cross roads – I call it my ‘Bruce Almighty moment’ – where I made a stark choice: capitulate or embrace my path and stand by my writing.
I did the latter and there was courage in it; six months on I look back at my victory for free expression with a sense of pride.
