I HAVE WRITTEN A NOVELETTE.
I Went To The Crossroads is primarily a sex-based autobiography. But it’s also necessary for me to emphasise the emotions involved, and the literal journeys; over 350km of cycling, and from that it becomes important to include the music that took me there. I’d add in the photos too, if the books weren’t going to be printed in black and white.
OH WAIT, NOW I CAN. And I can make the songs more accessible by linking them in.
Excited yet? I AM.
