Australian Outback Comedy
PETE BENSLEY'S LATEST NOVEL
DON'T FUCK IT UP FRANK
Probably the greatest Aussie yarn ever told.
According to Frank and Neville anyway.
Welcome to Woop Woop, where footy, bowls, beer, old rivalries and spectacularly poor decisions collide. Don't Fuck It Up Frank is an Australian Outback comedy about mateship, community and the ordinary people who somehow turn everything into chaos.
WELCOME TO WOOP WOOP
Same red dust. Different legends. Questionable decisions.
"I didn't even make it past the hilarious Legal Disclaimer at the start of the book, I was laughing so hard."
Storytelling that makes you feel like you've pulled up a chair and someone has just started telling you the most outrageous story you've ever heard.
This isn’t just a funny story, it’s a celebration of flawed, real people and the unpredictable nature of life in a place where anything can happen, and usually does.
Don't fuck it up Frank is the ultimate Aussie yarn,
inspired by Pete’s real love for the Outback and the
unique characters that make rural Australia special.
ABOUT PETE BENSLEY
Pete Bensley is an Australian author with a genuine love for the Outback, its people and the characters you meet in ordinary places.
Pete was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Early in his career, he got to travel around Outback Queensland for work. He visited places like Thursday Island, Longreach, Quilpie, Cunnamulla, and parts of inland and coastal Northern New South Wales, meeting plenty of memorable Aussie characters along the way.
In Outback Australia, everyone has a nickname. Even if the nickname is rough or a bit insulting, people wear it proudly because it means they belong. It stands as a gesture of inclusion and acceptance within community or social group.
His stories celebrate the humour, resilience and the mateship that make rural Australia like no other place on Earth. Don't Fuck It Up Frank is his first Woop Woop novel, with more stories on the way.
MY LIFE. EMBELLISHED.
A collection of Short Stories,
written by Pete Bensley
Life. Some have exciting and amazing ones, the majority of us have really quite boring and uneventful ones. Thanks to him, who first caught a small, undersized fish many centuries ago and then told his friends that he had caught a bloody huge fish. Thus, embellishment was born.
Have a laugh at the symbolic 'bloody huge fish' I've created and enjoy my
otherwise boring real life stories, embellished.
