Project dad.

After a marathon 62-hour labour, my wife and I welcomed our first child into the world tired, excited and scared shitless. My wife found solace and support in the plethora of mothers' groups, community services and online forums. During my weaker moments, I too sought support from other dads. The problem was that there just wasn’t any. Men just aren’t adept in sharing their stories, feelings, fears and accomplishments. It’s 2017 and this just can’t be the case anymore. Dads need support, they need guidance, they need other dads to rein them in and pump them up in equal parts and I want to make a small contribution to that by publishing your stories.

The book, which is as yet untitled, is a place to house the stories I find, to help share them around with others. All profits from this book will be donated to Mission Australia who do an amazing job in supporting families, mental health and much more. http://www.missionaustralia.com.au/

I plan to create the content for this book over the next six months (June/July 2017) from that point the stories and images will be curated, sub edited and designed into a book which I plan to release in the weeks leading up to fathers day 2017.
