General News

Welcome to the blog of a A Last Chance PowerDrive.

I started this diary as I traveled round India and Nepal on a motorbike from October - December 2011. I started it as something to do on the many evenings that I spent by myself in a cafe or restaurant with no one to talk to, and as a way of recording the events that happened to me.

However, it turned into something a bit more and started me on a path of writing that I haven't really turned back from. I have edited and extended these adventures into three books, collectively called A Last Chance PowerDrive. The first two, 'Gods on Tour' and 'Of Death and the Desert' are currently available on Amazon, and the third part, 'Walking in the Footsteps of a Buddha' will be available early 2013.

I have also got a novel, co-written with Lucy Robson out, and am halfway through a children's book set in Carthage, 250BC. Details of all of these, and other blog posts and news, are all available on benedictbeaumont.co.uk .

I am about to retire to the French Alps for six months to continue writing.

Much love

Benedict
