GINGERBREAD INTERVIEW

The interview went really well and the lady journo said I had done "really well" as a single parent.

The Gingerbread Man

Today I am doing a Interview with GINGERBREAD the single parent charity run by Harry Potter writer JK Rowling.

From Bow Bells To HOLLYWOOD

"HAPPY DAYS"

Another step closer to Punk Rock Stories And Tabloid Tales becoming a movie.

Beachdancer Films in California USA are writing a `treatment` of my story ... in the UK this is called a `screenplay`.

They have invited me to visit them in Hollywood.

I am `very excited`.

This is not a wind-up and swear on my life this is KOSHER.

I would not risk my life by lying.

The valve in my heart has a five year `life-span` and seeing as I was given it in December 2013 the clock is already running down.

So as it is I`m already living on borrowed time so would I `swear on my life` if I was lying?

Every word you have read and are about to read is the Gospel truth.

This time last year at a party I met up again with Football Factory writer John King and resumed my own writing career.

A lot has happened in the past 12 months.

I have released 2 albums, had two books published, appeared in a film, on stage and recorded 3 TV shows for SKY Arts. (Friday nights 9pm and Sunday nights 8pm)

There is more to come.

June: The Roundhouse in London

August: The Rebellion Festival in Blackpool.

October: Another film release - all the video clips are currently being transferred to DVD and I`m doing the voice-over.

They asked and I agreed.

Who needs Danny Dyer or Ray Winstone?

Not only am I cheaper but seeing as I was there and took part in the actual filming - without being "big-headed" at times I also sort of directed.

I was the larger-than-life co-star so it`s more authentic and makes sense if I do the voice-over in my best Cockney accent.

It won`t be shown on the BBC, ITV or Channel 4 but should get a late-night slot on cable TV.

I know for a fact there will be clips on the Internet to promote the purchase of the DVD.

As with my records, books, personal appearances both films will be promoted all over Social Media.

I repeat every word in this chapter is 100 per cent factual and once again I swear that "on my life".

The Garry Johnson Story has not ended.

Adult Stories And Tabloid Tales will also be released in October.

Fathers' Day

Support this song in the run-up to FATHER`S DAY.

This was written from the heart as through NO fault of mine I have not seen my daughter since November 2008.

But "Thank God" it will soon be October.
