MUST READ! A lion escapes captivity at a coastal resort town The lion is a “white lion” According to legend, white lions are messengers of the gods But of course that is just superstition And, anyway, you can’t have a lion frightening off the tourists Whatever the color is! That’s bad for business So the lion has to go, and hunters are called in from all over Australia In the wake of the hunters, come more tourists The bets are ON! The coastal resort town turns into a boom town Who is going to bag the lion? This is a page-turning short story... a great read!
In a word, I messed up. Had a great start, won a Commonwealth Scholarship to University, did great in sports, represented my school in swimming, represented the University in Judo, in short I was just the sort of guy who would succeed. So what went wrong? I ended up taxi-driving, picking fruit, doing cleaning jobs, delivery jobs, was a driving instructor once and so on. Got fired from most of my jobs, bummed around for awhile, for a long while, actually, etc, etc. Got into trouble with the law, etc, etc. Perfect life for an author, but not recommended otherwise...
