I am currently working on two manuscripts, one is loosely about the story of grief and my experiences losing my brother and then my son and the ripple effect that it had on my family, friends and co-workers. The other is a thriller based around the exploits of my character Alex Pearson in a race against time through a number of countries in an effort to save not the world but something eve more precious to us all, free will and free choice. 

That aside it was devastating to come back to my day work yesterday and find that one of Western Australia’s most lovable rouges had passed away over the weekend. Glen Bridge, winner of Western Australia’s funniest joke telling competition and an all round Aussie guy. I will miss our occasional talks and remember fondly the times we had too much to drink, the nudie dances on the boat, the laughter that you brought too so many people. I will not forget that it is “mint”. Good luck in the next chapter mate, love ya.

For everyone that does read my blog I can’t stress enough the importance of being and doing what you want to do in life, don’t let anything hold you back because every corner in this world does hold something different for us, not always good but always a new experience and part of the learning journey. Embrace life with all that you have and hold it dear, and make sure you tell those people that you love.

Currently reading China Cukoo by Mark Kitto – anybody who has read it send me your comments – love to hear what you think.

Good Times
