Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
My name is Bing Fraser, and I have a travelling problem. My 8 years of roaming the world have seen me arrested, held at gunpoint, lose my teeth, suffer a schizophrenic episode, crack my skull open (with the ensuing concussion lasting the better half of two years), get robbed more times than one could fathom, and greet death so many times, the Reaper is on my Christmas card list.
Unprotected Treks is my first book; a compilation of humourous short stories compiled to teach people what NOT to do when travelling the world.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is “Unprotected Treks: The Politically Incorrect Blueprint for World Travel”; the first of what will be a series of 107 books. Bad luck seems to follow me on the road, so I thought I’d share my mishaps with the world!
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Tucker Max, Chelsea Handler
What are you working on now?
Books 2 through to 107
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Instagram: @kingbingfraser
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Hank Moody: “I can’t teach you how to write, and anybody who says they can is full of shit. The only thing I can do is write about the shit that excites me; the shit that gets me hard… Don’t be niggardly with your emotions. Just run it up the flagpole and see who salutes.”
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Don’t be 80, looking back on what could’ve been. You may miss the ball, but don’t be sitting back here having not even taken a swing.
What are you reading now?
Greenlights: Matthew McConaughey
What’s next for you as a writer?
Just keep swimming.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
Steven Pinker: Enlightenment Now
Tucker Max: I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell
Bret Easton Ellis: American Psycho
Bing Fraser: Unprotected Treks
