Brad Butcher’s biography tells how he isn’t about writing to please a certain demographic nor aiming for fame or fortune.
But, rather, he wants to tell his story in the only way he knows, with honesty and his unique writing quality, with a refreshing view of his world.
From his childhood days fishing the Pioneer River, his sporting years playing Rugby League in Mackay, working in coal mines as a crane operator and rigger, to touring the world as a musician, Brad’s stories commentate on reality, mental health, growing up in Central Queensland and the daily grind.
