BOOKS:
1: Autobiography - The Paul Duddell Story "THE ART OF LIVING"
A True Story of Passion, Perseverance and Art, Told from the Heart.
Every life begins as a blank canvas.
Some are painted in steady strokes — calm seas, simple skies, familiar faces.
Others, like mine, are born in the wild colours of change — Africa’s red earth, the blinding white of Mediterranean light, and the greys and colds of Norfolk rain.
My name is Paul “AWESOME” Duddell, and this is the story of a life lived in motion — a story not just of where I’ve been, but of what I’ve learned along the way.
From a boy with golden hair standing in a metal cot in Nairobi, to a man searching for meaning across continents — through laughter, loss, and rediscovery — this is a journey of becoming.
It’s about art and heart, about falling and rising, about never giving up even when the light seems far away.
It’s a reminder that sometimes we travel the longest roads only to return to ourselves.
For nearly three decades, I wandered through life’s storms, searching for something I couldn’t name. And then, in 2004, I found it — when I held my daughter Rhianna in my arms for the first time. In that moment, I realised I hadn’t just become a father.
I’d been reborn.
This book is not a list of events. It’s a celebration of the human spirit — of memory, resilience, and love.
It’s about “The Art of Living” — and how even the darkest canvas can be transformed by a single stroke of light.
2: Road Trip Shenanigans — "The Four Sisters' Journey from Land's End to John O'Groats"
The story kicks off with the sisters gathered around the kitchen table, discussing their plans for the summer. Jade, always the adventurous one, suggests a road trip from Land's End to John O'Groats. The other sisters are initially sceptical but soon get caught up in the excitement.
"A road trip? You mean we'd be in a car for hours?" Bethany asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Come on, Bethany! It's about the journey. Not just the destination!" Rhianna exclaimed.
Chiara chimed in, "And think of the memories we'll make! Remember that time we got lost in the woods and Bett mistook a squirrel for a rare bird?" The sisters all chuckled together.
3: Norfolk Dialect
