The Limehouse Chronicles

THE MOMENT YOU START READING YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO PUT IT DOWN.

Step into a riveting WWII saga as Peter Wayman and Anne Colyer’s lives are upended by the German Luftwaffe during ‘The Blitz.’ Follow their journey from London’s East End to the nuclear disarmament marches of the 1950s, where they face an unforeseen future.

As Peter, a Royal Navy Signals officer, is drawn into the secretive world of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) by Captain Smith, they embark on daring night flights to Southern France. Their mission: to establish escape lines for downed pilots and refugees, obstructing the Nazi war machine. From the wartime Savoy Hotel in London to the Arctic Circle and the Mediterranean, follow their perilous adventures, entangled in a web of American bases, ‘Cold War’ spies, and unexpected alliances.

My Life in Radio

From microphone to management, a fascinating first-hand insight into the Australian radio industry.

In a long and successful career, Roger Summerill worked with many of the biggest names in Australian radio—as an announcer and later in station management. In this frank and revealing memoir Roger chronicles his life and career. He reflects on the many big personalities he encountered along the way—from radio stars like John Laws, Malcolm T Elliott and Richard Glover to the biggest show business names of the last half century—from Australians like Normie Rowe and John Farnham (and a pre-fame encounter with The Easybeats’ Stevie Wright) to international superstars like Roy Orbison and Elton John.

Roger also discusses the importance of family and community, and the role that faith has played in his life.

Multi’s Gift to Nature

One day Multi, a young multi-coloured creature, goes for a walk on his own in the rainforest. Much to his surprise, the rose garden on his parents’ farm and then a tall tree in the forest start speaking to him. They seem to know what Multi is feeling and thinking.

What do they tell him?

Multi’s Gift to Nature shows children that their gift is to enjoy nature and it is for adults to find solutions to climate change. It focuses on a child’s well-being and their relationship with nature. The book is for 7-11 year old children.

Essentially You

“The most important conversations you need to have are with yourself.”

For your benefit, I’m sharing the physical activities and thought processes I focused on that I accredit my success to through the most challenging time of my life, suffering from poor mental health and low self-esteem.

Once I got myself up and started exercising, it allowed me to start thinking and self-reflect honestly about different situations, choices and interactions from my teen years and throughout my life.

I realised the choices I had made years before only provided limited options. I needed to understand better how I could continually improve my life’s path and create better opportunities going forward.

Over time and with my continual efforts, my mental health improved with my outlook on life being from a more positive perspective, creating greater self-belief and confidence to overcome my challenges.

The lessons learnt via my experiences can provide guidance and support, reducing confusion in your own journey. My dream is to help you continually improve your normal and then be the better you. Read on and believe in yourself.
