Front man in an almost famous band. Judge on \u003ci\u003eThe Great Pottery Throwdown\u003c\/i\u003e. How did all that happen?\u003cbr\u003eBy accident mostly. But I always say we make our own luck. What if an art teacher hadn't given me a lump of clay? What if the band had been really successful? What if I hadn't taken a photograph of a bowl to the buyer at Heals in London? What if she'd hated it? Or hadn't seen it... What if I hadn't agreed to dress up as Adele to make a crazy YouTube video? \u003cbr\u003eEvery chapter of my book is based around an object (usually a pot) that's been significant in my life. It's just at trigger to let me go off in a lot of different directions and tell a few stories. A lot of stories. Dyslexia. The art teacher who changed my life. My Mother. My Father. A life-changing job interview with a man who lay under his car throughout. That video.\u003cbr\u003eSifting through half-forgotten memories, trying to pick out the golden nuggets from the stuff that is definitely dross has been a curious, and at times hilarious, sometimes sad, but definitely enlightening process. So here it is - my pottery life with some very loud music and some pretty good dancing. And a lot of throwing, fettling and firing. \u003cbr\u003eOh ...and a good dose of anxiety.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hodder \u0026 Stoughton","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44895251792101,"sku":"NP9781529385229","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/1a666d6c-b742-42eb-a02a-adae0160c1d4.jpg?v=1767840573","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/boy-in-a-china-shop-isbn-9781529385229","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
