  • The Gypsy HorrorA series published in 2011 that charts my sordid affair with a first love (parts 1 to 6) following onto Part 7, where I concentrate on his published memoirs, and the fallacy that is Hodder u0026amp; Stoughton’s ‘Gypsy Boy’. ‘Mikey Walsh’ made it my business when he took elements of my life as his own. When he wrote about me, my life and my relationship with him, did he expect that I would stay powerless, silenced and buried alive by this monstrosity? Perhaps my voice has been a scream in a hurricane, ineffectual and lost – but I hold the truth, and whilst it has sat here online, I have been appeased, but this will never be over, until he, and those who enabled him, admit and knowledge what they have done. I have followed truth, above all else, all of my life – it leads to contentment of the soul, surety of purpose and a will no power on earth can extinguish. – David V Barron
