• GUYifesto—the video!

    06 May 2021

    Many moons ago, I wrote a very atypical piece called GUYifesto for a book called Guys Read, which was a fun collection of stories about what it means to be a GUY. My piece was VERY tongue in cheek, a chance for me to flash my funny bone, which is usually hidden under layers of blood and guts in my books!!! I enjoyed writing it, and if I recall correctly I read it out at least once at a live event, for a Guys Read launch party. But I haven't thought about it in a long, long time.

     

    A few months back, a librarian got in touch with me to ask if a couple of students could record a dramatised reading of GUYIFESTO, in a collaborative project between a small town community theatre group, Tree County Players, and the local library, Greensburg Decatur County Library. I said that would be fine, and they went ahead and video recorded an extremely funny sketch, which you can check out on YouTube -- and I highly recommend that you DO check it out -- by clicking here:
