Never had a real job in the real world. A Labor stooge his whole life. Now worth approx. $15 million and hung around long enough to be Prime Minister shoving socialism down our throats. In the end, we probably only have ourselves to blame.

In his entire adult professional career, Anthony Albanese has NEVER had a job outside the Labor Party. Career politician, wrecking Australia. #australia #labor

Sall will win. Eventually she will win. Otherwise we are all in trouble.

Many thanks, Paul. Really appreciate your generous words and your support.
Congratulations ALL. This is great news and well deserved. I love a cohesive core to an anthology, heart and purpose with originality and variety, Romy Lives hits the mark

Well, double great news came in overnight from the USA.  The 20th Annual National Indie Excellence Awards were announced and both the books I entered were named as Finalists. Second success - the anthology project, "Romy Lives", put together by myself and @realVernonSmith was a Finalist in the anthology category.  Also a real credit to all the authors who had stories in the collection alongside Vern and myself.

Cool story. I can’t run my business because your government thinks men can be women. Trust me, the world isn’t laughing at us because of my stance.

Harry’s World Enter PI Harry Kenmare, a flawed hero from another era. Grappling with his own demons, he’s on a mission of justice, hypocritical façades will be smashed, and the rules sure don’t always apply. Beware, it’s a brutal and libidinous world.

Woke Alarm! If there was an award for anti-woke fiction writing (as there possibly should be), then I humbly submit that my PI Harry Kenmare stories would at least make the short list. As a writer, I believe in free and frank expression, and I pander to no one. If you like hard-core crime fiction, give PI Harry Kenmare a try. Cheers, ABP amazon.com/dp/B08GL4F9PG/ref…

Woke Alarm! This is a book that had the woke brigade clutching their pearls and wetting their panties. They were utterly beside themselves, and you should have seen the abuse I copped. That’s life, I’ve got broad shoulders, and I’ll write what the hell I want to write. If you like hard-core crime fiction, give PI Harry Kenmare a try. Cheers, ABP amazon.com/dp/B08GL4F9PG/ref…

Aussie crime fiction at its most hard-core! Want some great Aussie storytelling to keep you on the edge of your seat??? If you like your crime fiction brutal, sexy, and swimming in old-school justice, then the PI Harry Kenmare stories are what you’ve been waiting for. Dark, debauched, and disturbing, they tell stories about crime and corruption as it really happens. I should know as I’ve spent a career investigating the sleaze in our society. My writing is not for the faint-hearted. You need to buckle up and bite down for these rides. There’s a solid reason I’ve been called “The bad boy of Australian crime fiction”. The three novels in order are “Harry’s World”, followed by “Harry’s Quest”, and then the explosive “Harry’s Grail”. And the short story collection are all stand-alone yarns, with Harry telling it in the first person. If you’re in Australia, I can send you signed paperback copies – just MESSAGE ME. If you’re overseas, then all the usual online outlets stock my work. I can also post to you, but the postage cost is truly criminal!!! And e-books are also available across the various platforms. Cheers, ABP
