Letters To Myself book cover

Greetings and welcome to my website

Ha SpiritI am really glad you found your way here, even if it was only through serendipity. I am an ex West End Nightclub bouncer, turned poet and author, and my new book Letters to Myself is the first published offering of many of my eclectic thoughts and colourful observations of life.

There is an age-old adage which goes "Everyone has a book in them," a statement of fact as far as I am concerned, because I believe that every one of us is a walking talking classic just waiting to be opened. In my case that opening came in the early hours of a Friday morning in late October 2001. I found myself suddenly waking up at about four am, and walking dreamily into my living room sitting down at my coffee table, and writing like a man possessed, it was an emotional outpouring that I had never before experienced in my entire life, and as my Parker-pen made heavy demands on my thick reporter's notebook, I instinctively knew that something magical was at work here.

That is a morning I will never forget in a hurry, and since then I haven't stopped putting pen to paper, waxing lyrical about love, life, Sex, the Good the Bad the unusual, and the hidden magic which keeps all of these potent ingredients required for our essential daily existence constantly flowing.

People and the things they do provide me with all the inspiration I need to write, you see I find human beings so fascinating, some of the most ultra interesting personalities I've come across, have been whilst I was a doorman and bodyguard, and "let me tell you this, you meet a completely different kind of individual after dark, when you work the nightclubs Monday to Friday, trust me".

My life thus far has been filled with so many vivid experiences, and I have encountered numerous strange situations which at times cause me to pause, reminisce and say ("My God, that was really heavy!") I was once told by an old female Gypsy fortune teller that I am protected by a powerful Guardian Angel 24/7, and that was twenty six years ago, so its been very busy.

The writing of my new book was inspired to a great extent, by the fantastic feedback I had received from other writers and lovers of a good word or two, at various creative functions where myself and those not given to bouts of stage fright would read from what would later on become for some of us, our published artistic works ala Letters to Myself. Now my long term aim is to continue writing about a whole gamut of topics of which I find interesting and engaging, and also encourage more people to do the same, even if it is only for their own personal witness, therapy or source of pleasure, as I believe we owe it to ourselves to explore the true and full contents of the nature of our soul.

Please be my guest and check out the other pages on my website, where you will find an in-depth Bio interview with me, and reviews of Letters to Myself, you can also give me feedback by sending me an email via the contact page.

Thank you
Ha, Spirit
