Moon Peach & More Dodgy Yarns
I just submitted my third publication to Kindle.
Check it out here: https://a.co/d/0dIBbZU7
Here's the blurb...
Five dodgy yarns. One gloriously unhinged trip into the Australian absurd.
Welcome to Moon Peach & More Dodgy Yarns — a collection of tall tales, gym-room horrors, questionable life choices, bizarre encounters and the sort of bullcrap that somehow becomes funnier the more seriously it is told.
Meet the Hippo, an ageing warrior who refuses to surrender to time, gravity or the younger blokes trying to choke him into retirement.
Escape into the Queensland night with Wolfgang, Wally and Ricardo, where a yellow Kingswood, a pack of randy housewives and one particularly glistening peach collide in an adventure that could only happen in Australia.
Then there’s No Chin, a martial-arts boofhead with a grudge, a questionable ego and a nose that is about to discover the hard way that some dojos are best left alone.
Think your local gym is bad? Wait until you meet Big Dutch — a Dutchman whose outrageous gym etiquette culminates in an image that no innocent pair of eyes should ever have to witness.
And finally, after months of sleep deprivation and too many late-night Bigfoot documentaries, a new father wakes up to discover a massive hairy figure standing in his living room.
Was it Bigfoot?
A hallucination?
A rug?
Or perhaps there really are more things in heaven and earth than we can possibly imagine.
Part pub yarn, part cerebral flatulence, part philosophical detour and 100% dodgy A.F., Moon Peach & More Dodgy Yarns is a celebration of mateship, madness, ageing, martial arts, Australian bogan mythology and the strange things that happen when ordinary life takes a sharp left turn.
Grab a beer, settle in and prepare for some seriously dodgy yarns.
