- Book Synopsis
- The Nonogon Story tells the tale of Daniel O'Dork aka YODi who came from the Northern English town of Brunlea, an aspiring young artist in 1969 who began creating strange characters. These comic characters' gradually became quite important in his life; one of them he named Apulhed became his alter-ego. By 1999 he had more than ten personages that he made sculptures of, exhibiting them at Colchester Library in January 2000. As the New Millennium began, YODi (now a Middle Aged Dork, MAD) had a strange dream that he went to Arizona to meet the Hopi people who hold ceremonies in underground pits called kivas. YODi looked around the kiva and saw many people from his own past there; it seemed he was in an extraordinary meeting peopled by his lifelong friends, comic book heroes, and Old Souls. He saw he is part of The Nonogon Nomads (a Cosmic Tribe who travel in a Nine Sided Craft called The Nonogon). The Nonomads were gathering to take on the Vainglorious Arch-Villain BeeHellZeeBug before his forces take over the Universe! Look inside to see how they manage to control the Beast.
- About The Author
- Pete began writing almost by accident in those days at the start of his life at college 300 miles away from his home town. He was lonely among the crowd and began writing down his thoughts with a view to writing some poetry to enter a fresher's competition (which he never did but his writing had begun). Two years after leaving college he turned his journal notes into his first self-published book, Apul-One. As it was full of his own peculiar words spelt in a personal phonetic style he noticed many people couldn't decipher it so he left his day job to re-write it. Forty years later he published The Shrewd Idiot. This was really a work of art, not literature and in 2020 he embarked on turning it into a more readable book which he also cut by a third. This became A Great Fool. In the meantime he also produced three books about the travels in the imagination of his alter-ego Daniel O'Dork the writing in which was more sparse. These three books later became O'Dork's Nonogon Adventure. Apulgrimage to Pete Kennedy from Luke Walker on Vimeo.
