Sebastian Horsley / HOOKERS DEALERS TAILORS





Amazingly, my inability didn't seem to matter. Writing is not about literature.
It's a personality racket. The column gained a cult (ie tiny) readership and my agent Patrick Walsh demanded a book proposal.
Then, to my astonishment in 2001, my memoir was commissioned by Fourth Estate.

Bloody hell! Now I really was in trouble.
What was I going to do? I decided to invest the advance in class A drugs andprostitutes.
The rest I squandered.

A year later Leo Hollis, my commissioning editor phoned me up.

"How are you getting along, Sebastian?"

"Well, er, I have written the title. Dandy in the Underworld. Four words. Very nice.
There is a dull stretch in the middle but it picks up at the end."

"What seems to be the problem?"

"The problem is that I haven't actually done anything.
You see, I haven't really had a life. I've just sat in a room and died."

"Sebastian, your grandmother spent half her life in an asylum.
Your father runs one of the nation's biggest companies and is an alcoholic cripple.
Your mother is a walking fruit cart. You have had an affair with one of the most notorious gangsters of all time. You have swum with sharks, made a million on the stock market, been a male escort, spent thousands on prostitutes, and discovered the most unglamorous side of heroin and crack addiction. Oh... and you went to the Philippines to be crucified. So, if you think you've got nothing to say you are bonkers. You are under contract but should be under observation. Now get on with it."

I got to work.
