No Relation to Raymond

These stories are written in a variety of styles by one author—some are poetic, some raw, all written to give a greater understanding of the writer's life after years of self-reflection, discipline, and hard work.

​

It is written with complete transparency with complete disregard of how his writing will impact upon the audience. Some will hate him. Some will love him. That is up to you. 

​

This is a space for the untold to be told, for the tales/stories/innuendo to be corrected or confirmed, for the crimes to be confirmed, denied or revealed for this first time, and stories of love and life told with refreshing honesty and unparalleled detail. 

​

So much detail that one section is fully referenced - so adamant is the author about setting the record straight. There can be no repercussions for truth telling. If reputations are destroyed then perhaps that should have been a concern whilst those people were behaving and taking the courses of actions they did. 

​

And trust me when I tell you some people are not going to like what they will read, or what is said about them, or indeed like the way they behaved in instances-but it is unfiltered honesty like you have never read before from a writer penning his life story. 

​

Everything is relevant - even the irrelevant. People do not care for mirrors to be placed in front of themselves so they can see the real them and not the mask they have worn for so long that it has integrated fully into their psyche; and they actually believe that is whom they are. 

​

They prefer to live inside how they are perceived and exterior validation and "appearances" mean everything - even when behind closed doors it is the polar opposite. 

​

If this series of writings does not make the reader seriously think deeply about themselves and who they really are; nothing ever will.
