I have authored 12 books over the past 20 years, for a number of publishers, including The Guyra Ghost Mystery, Monster: The Story of Len Lawson and Australian Gothic: The Untold Story of the 1929-’31 Dracula Stage Tour Down Under (to name but three).

Adams has been on the nose for a fair while now.

I’m all for freedom of speech and expression. But, freedom of speech does not mean freedom from consequence. You can say what you want, but you need to be aware that not everyone is going to agree.

And you can’t keep crying cancel culture when you act or talk like a prat.

@caity @3wombats It’s an amazing story indeed. And, as I’ve been writing it, I’ve fallen in love with Louise. But then she’d be tickled about that.

BearManor Media will be publishing the book in 2024. But I’ll keep everyone updated.

Tell me a better artist than Kate Bush.

Spoiler alert. If you name anyone other than Kate. You’re wrong.

Just a heads up. You can find me on the book of face at the following. I talk a lot of crud there.

Perfect Strangers is Deep Purple playing Kashmir by Led Zeppelin.

You will not change my mind.

I signed a contract for this book just the other week. I’ve been working on it for the past two years. Not a single Australian publisher was interested in the story of the first Aussie Hollywood star. And Louise’s life was nothing short of amazing.

Louise Lovely. Australia’s First Hollywood Movie Star.
