Over the last few months I have received hundreds of emails asking what I had planned for 2008. My children's fantasty book, THE MAGIC LOCKER, will be published on 6th May. This tells the story of a chronically sick 7 year old boy who spends most of his life in and out of Alder Hey Children's Hospital. To help him cope with his long stays in hospital he discovers a way into a surreal world through the locker beside his bed. This world is called Heswobble, people by crazy and very eccentric characters,and led by The Sleepy Time Keeper, whose job it is to look after children whose lives are destined for long stays in hospital. With the help of Jen Heyes of Cut To The Chase Productions, the book has been turned into a children's musical theatre, and will be staged at the Liverpool Empire for 8 days beginning in February 2009. I have written all the music for ther show, and part of the proceeds from both the book and the stage show will be donated to Alder Hey's 'Imagine Appeal'. WATCH OUT FOR THAT!
I have also co-written a book with Dr Ciaran O'Keeffe, parapsychologist from the popular television programme, MOST HAUNTED, entitled THE GREAT SPIRITUAL CLASH! This will be in the shops in July 2008. Jane Goldman has written the foreword. Ciaran and I have also created a stage show around the concept of the book and this will be staged in the West End of London and then taken to BROADWAY, NEW YORK in the late Autumn.
Also on February 1st, 2008, my book, THE MAGIC OF THE AURA will be in the shops, a useful handbook for everyone interested in psychic development and metaphysics.
My very first book of ghost stories, first published in 1975, will also be republished in September 2008. This has a national appeal, and contains stories from all over the UK.
I have also just signed a contract to record a series of television programmes based on my Channel One TV series, SECRETS OF THE PARANORMAL. We will begin filming in May 2008.
Although I have no psychic shows planned for Liverpool, I will be conducting a series of lectures, workshops and courses at The Academy of Arts - The Actor's Studio, Seel Street in the Liverpool City Centre. Dates to be arranged
