This heart-warming and inspiring story follows the journey of David, a working-class lad from Lakemba who, despite getting into mischief and facing life’s many challenges, emerged on the other side stronger than ever.
From moments like coaching an under-nines soccer team alongside his manager Jack – who told concerned parents, “If you have any complaints, come to me, not David. I’ve had injuries to my spine, and my surgeon warned me, ‘Operating on you could make you a quadriplegic, David.’ Yet his prediction that the pain would ease every ten years has been spot on. Today, it’s nothing” – to dealing with setbacks like buying a courier run from Nu Way Transport Newcastle, only to return from Christmas holidays to find the factory burned down by an arsonist, David’s life has been a rollercoaster.
After starting his own courier business, sometimes earning as little as five dollars a day, and navigating the ups and downs of the Australian mining boom, David spent 14 years travelling for months at a time before retiring at fifty-nine to Atlantis on the Gold Coast.
However, retirement brought a new challenge: bowel cancer. After being 21 months cancer-free, the disease returned and spread to his lungs – stage four. Yet, through it all, David’s resilience has never wavered. This is more than just his story; it’s an inspiration to cancer sufferers and a testament to the power of perseverance in the face of life’s toughest battles.

But beneath the humour and high-spirited escapades lies a deeper exploration of what it means to truly embrace adventure. From the ancient rainforests of the Daintree to the electrifying energy of Cairns’ nightlife, Bulow’s travels capture the highs and lows of throwing caution to the wind and seeing where the world takes you.

I could imagine the reader wondering who would seek comfort in winter. Then again, I would assume the reader would long for the hot summer days. For my ancestors and me, the sun has proved the most efficient jailer, restricting our activities to the night. When you read my life, you will judge me, but can I ask you to consider the defence often put forward for the carnal acts of others? “He was a man of his time”. I offer no defence because I was a monster and still am.
I arrived here from France under the umbrella of the Huguenot Diaspora in the company of a mortal who would become the love of my life, accepting me for what I was. We settled in London as Wren built his masterpiece, but our love was not to last, as God took her from me.
So I lay with my love after taking a draught, which I hoped would afford me ceaseless sleep. However, this ended for me with waking in your city, now so alien. Within days I had to kill, not to feed but to save a young woman from a cowardly attack. My reward…her friendship and that of her brother, a physician whose expertise has seen my need to feed cease. Soon the most unholy alliance would be formed when I joined my eldest enemy, the church, to oppose the property developers.

The gentle coupling of childhood nostalgia and every parent’s wish for their little treasures. A simple yet captivating narrative for both the child and the reader alike.
Dear Maggie began merely as a very sporadically written poem, which transformed into letters from the author to her young daughter throughout a period of immense ‘mum-guilt’. Having just relocated with her tiny family to the vibrant metropolis of Dubai from the laid-back coast of South Australia with a five-month-old baby in tow, Maggie’s mum soon came to realise that this transition brought with it many waves of emotion. Whilst still adjusting to this new life as a full-time mum (for now), there was a notable absence of both friends and family – the ‘village’, as they say. Mum and Dad began to wonder if the decision they had made for their family was the right one – hello, mum-guilt on new levels!
Whilst the desire to captivate and inspire little ones with this poetic piece prevails, Dear Maggie also serves, with careful intention, as a touching reminder to the reader (namely, the parents) that regardless of your location, how many toys they have, your financial status, or indeed who you have around you, every child is a magical blank canvas waiting to be decorated by life in all its true colours. That vulnerability, the wondrous discoveries, and the two-way unconditional love all remain constant. So too does the wish of every parent for their child: to experience life with the purest of joy in the simplest, most naturally beautiful ways.
