Sex, Drugs and Rock n' Roll...Lies, lies, lies

Paul Kennedy Blackburn takes readers on a ride through time, reflecting on the rapid changes society has undergone since the slow, golden days of the 1960s and 70s. Through memories, personal stories, and cultural commentary, he captures a world that has traded patience and human connection for instant gratification and relentless speed. Blending humor, anger, and nostalgia, Paul questions how much progress we’ve really made — and what we’ve lost along the way. This memoir is a wake-up call to slow down, reconnect, and live with intention before life passes by in a blur.

Through vivid storytelling, nostalgic reflection, and sharp cultural critique, he paints a picture of a world spinning faster, losing touch with patience, community, and authenticity.

Dead Poets vs Still Alive & Well

Paul Kennedy Blackburn shifts gears into the world of creativity, poetry, and the unfiltered pursuit of truth. Inspired by the spirit of the Dead Poets Society, Paul rejects rules, formulas, and expectations, instead championing art that comes straight from the heart. Through personal reflections, original poems, and collaborations, he invites readers to find their own voice, embrace vulnerability, and seize the day. Part philosophy, part creative manifesto, this book is a fearless celebration of passion, individuality, and the power of living authentically in a world that often demands conformity.
