Arriving in Byron Bay in 1998 I was overwhelmed by the natural beauty of the region, which led to my first book, Byron Bay: The History, Beauty and Spirit. Initially I wanted to show people how beautiful it was here. My direction altered as the history and the spirit beckoned.
One year after commencing my Byron research, spirituality superseded all the other topics. In 2011, a few months after the successful launch of my first book, I began writing A Surfer’s Search for Spirituality in Byron Bay. The story was conceived on Tallow Beach around 1999, though the words were not forthcoming for many years.
Much like the Byron Bay book does with history, Surfer’s Search traces the past 25 years of findings and outcomes in spirituality.
The years 2012–2024 involved navigating the Bible and learning the Way (a name used by primitive Christians). Studies of language, culture, translations and scripture, etc., uncovers a majestic story of reconciliation and restoration of all things.
This is a true-life story, 13 years in the making.
