    If you're looking for the events that inspired the lyrics to all my songs? Those stories are in this book. If you're looking for what I did when I was younger? That's in here. What changed me, made me stop hating and hurting? It's all here. This is my story and I'm sticking to it. That's the one thing I have, the truth. 
     
     
     
    Volume one of Black Heart Fades Blue, a three-part memoir by the founder and frontman for one of punk rock's most notorious acts, Poison Idea 
     
     
     
    In 1980, Jerry A. formed Poison Idea, a Portland-based punk band that gave voice to disaffected and disenfranchised youth for over thirty years. As happened to so many punk bands, Jerry A. and Poison Idea also went all in on drugs and drinking as they toured the country, spiraling out of control and blowing both the band and their lives apart. 
     
     
     
    Black Heart Fades Blue is not an apology or a nostalgic catalog of events, but a true reckoning with one's past and present. A memoir of a time and a place and a movement, as well as a deep conversation about the memories and moments we leave behind, Black Heart Fades Blue is a deep exploration of an unconventional life.

    What would it take to walk away from your dream life in Monaco and a global, multi-million-dollar business? 
     
    Wind back the clock on any Australian or New Zealand woman in her thirties or forties today and you'd probably find a Triangl bikini tucked away in her swimwear drawer. The uniquely neoprene, colour-blocked bikinis were the summer accessory season after season. Yet as customers snapped selfies at the beach, one woman was holed up in a smog-filled Hong Kong apartment, living on canned soup, battling twenty-hour days and debilitating depression, trying to make it all happen. 
     
    Hanging by a Thread takes a vulnerable deep dive into success and the challenge of caring for your mental health while in pursuit of your dreams. From getting scammed out of $50,000, trying to illegally cross the border into China, meeting with elite private equity firms with a three-month-old baby in tow and even experiencing the Kardashian-Jenner-kiss-of-death, Hanging By A Thread shares what it was really like behind the closed doors of one of Australia's young start-up success stories, and to be a woman on the edge of a nervous breakdown.

    An Umpire's Journey Through Cricket's Evolution 
    In a sport where legends are forged on hallowed grounds from Lord's to Eden Gardens, one umpire's story stands apart. 
    A passionate Australian cricketer trades his whites for an umpire's coat, embarking on a journey that would challenge cricket's traditions. For six years, he witnesses the game's magic from cricket's most privileged position - standing in matches across England's most storied grounds, where giants of the game once played. 
    But it's his return to Australia that delivers an unexpected twist - like a Kumble googly that deceives even the most seasoned batsman. 
    Inspired by the rising tide of women's cricket - a phenomenon that has given India superstars like Harmanpreet Kaur and Smriti Mandhana - he makes an unprecedented decision. Joining the Victorian Premier Cricket Umpires Panel, he chooses to stand exclusively in women's matches, becoming a champion for the fastest-growing segment of our beloved sport. 
    Stumped is more than just a memoir - it's a window into cricket's soul. Through the unique lens of an umpire, author Richard Harrison captures the game's finest nuances, from the technical mastery required in decision-making to the various elements that enshrine the spirit of cricket. 
    Join Richard as he shares fascinating insights into: 
    The art and science of umpiring at elite levels 
    Cricket's evolution from traditional men's formats to the explosive growth of the women's game 
    Behind-the-scenes stories that will delight every true cricket lover 
    Don't let this one slip through to the keeper - get your copy of Stumped today and discover how one umpire's decision to challenge convention helped champion the future of cricket.
