Not Like in the Movies

Over the course of my childhood, like anyone, I have had my fair share of obsessions. Like anything temporarily interesting for a child, they come and go quickly as soon as something else catches their attention. My obsessions ranged from Spain, rapping, getting my ears pierced, the new café on my street which I was so desperate to go to. But no obsession made such a greater impact on my life than fame. By “impact”, I mean writing a whole book about it!
