Probably the one Beatles story you don't know well. A, by-turns, amazing, chilling and hilarious account of stories told about the Fab Four that beggar belief but are - occasionally - true. The imaginative genius and terrifying reality of Beatle fandom is here exposed in a range of tales from the fairly well known (John was assassinated to order/Paul died in 1966 and was replaced by an impostor) to the lesser known story of George's similar replacement in the mid-seventies and the widely held belief among some that the band recorded under assumed names well into the late 1970's. Somewhere along the line we'll also attack the myth that there is very little that's interesting about Ringo Starr!

I have been writing for publication since I was a student; a career that has allowed me to explore a number of subjects to the point of being an expert with a fund of stories. At the end of the last century I founded the UK's first higher education course in Professional Writing. Over the years I have written and spoken on a range of subjects but am currently offering talks based on life-long interests and passions. All of these talks are negotiable in terms of length, the range of examples brought into any discussion and the extent to which hard facts and humour are included. More than anything I am happy to negotiate each event to take into account the needs of an audience.
