Tiger Lily of Bangkok 2

As I gazed out of my office window this morning, thinking about Tiger Lily of Bangkok 2,  fist-sized balls of candy floss were drifting past. As they snagged on bushes, pieces were torn away by the breeze and so were distributed further afield. Neem says that in old Thailand, people stuffed it into mattresses and pillows.

I have never seen it before.

I did start Tiger Lily of Bangkok 2 today, but did not get as far as I had hoped, because an old friend, Rick, brought an infrequent visitor, Joe, to Jem’s for a chat. It was nice to see them both. We had an enjoyable couple of hours banter.

To put such a meeting into context, I’m pretty sure that nothing like that has happened for the last fifteen months.

Such is the isolation of a foreigner in ‘remote’ parts of Thailand.

I put Lily in London for Tiger Lily of Bangkok 2, but it has revealed new problems. I never have known London well, but I now live in Thailand, so I will need to do a lot more research than I first anticipated. I don’t mind that, but it will slow me down until I feel comfortable in that environment.

I had a chat with a friend, a fellow writer, over email last night. He said that he found credible sequels more difficult than starting a new storyline. I generally find sequels easier, but he is going to be right about this one, I can feel it already. It has to do with the research, and the fact that the elite in Britain would rather the truth didn’t get out anyway.

I am talking about high society child abuse here as has been alleged against residences in Dolphin Square in Westminster, the most desirable place to live in inner London.

Tiger Lily of Bangkok 2 will not make any new revelations, but it might hit a few raw nerves.

Owen Jones, Amazon Best-Selling Author from Barry, Wales, has lived in several countries and travelled in many more. While studying Russian in the USSR in the '70's, he hobnobbed with spies on a regular basis; in Suriname, he got caught up in the 1982 coup; and while a company director, he joined the crew of four as the galley slave to sail from Barry to Gibraltar a home-made concrete yacht, which was almost rammed by a Russian oil tanker and an American aircraft carrier.
“I am a Celt, and we are romantic”, he said when asked about his writing style, “and I firmly believe in reincarnation, Karma and Fate, so, sayings like 'Do unto another...', and 'What goes round comes around' are central to my life and reflected in my work. I write about what I see, or think I see, or dream... and, in the end it is all the same really”. He speaks seven languages and is learning Thai, since he lives in Thailand with his Thai wife of fifteen years.
His first novel, Daddy's Hobby is from the seven-part series 'Behind The Smile: The Story of Lek, a Bar Girl in Pattaya', but his largest collection is 'The Megan Series', twenty-three novelettes on the psychic development of a teenage girl, the subtitle of which, 'A Spirit Guide, A Ghost Tiger and One Scary Mother!' sums them up nicely. He has written fifty novels and novelettes, including: Dead Centre; Andropov's Cuckoo; Fate Twister; The Disallowed (a philosophical comedy); Tiger Lily of Bangkok; and A Night in Annwn (Annwn being the ancient Welsh word for Heaven). Many have been translated into foreign languages and narrated into audio books.
Owen Jones writes stories set in Wales, Spain and Thailand, where he now lives. He is a life-long Spiritualist, and this belief is interwoven, in a very realistic way, into many of his books and storylines. If you like a touch of the 'supernatural', try his books
He sums his life up thus: “Born in the Land of Song, Living in the Land of Smiles”.
