For some, Stephen has lead a fascinating life of deliberate curiosity and of thrilling adventure. He has shared extraordinary true stories, of which, have tended to push some peoples’ imagination or believability to their limits. These stories and their retelling, whether in his writings or in general social intercourse, has over the years, lead some into further fascination and wonder of the world about us.

It is not the travelling to far off lands, and in meeting uncultured indigenous locals from where he has gathered such unusual stories, but from the people on the street. Secret groups, spiritual societies, magic circles, the deluded unloved and the gifted unknown, he seems to have met his fair share. He wanted to experience their unordered or unorthodox lives, to experience their unique abilities and to bathe in their magical persistence for living.
