True stories. Real people. Ridiculous situations.
This Shit Happens – The Series
This Shit Happens is a collection of true stories from the different chapters of Adam Hall’s life.
And apparently, quite a lot of shit has happened.
From nearly twenty years working in Australian schools to Army Cadets, the military, pubs, jobs, family life and all the questionable decisions made along the way, each book dives into a different part of Adam’s life and the people who made it memorable.
These aren't carefully crafted works of fiction.
This stuff actually happened.
Names and a few identifying details have been changed where necessary—partly to protect the innocent, but mostly because Adam would like to avoid awkward conversations and continue being employed.
Some stories are hilarious.
Some are embarrassing.
Some are completely unbelievable.
And quite a few probably shouldn't have happened in the first place.
The first book in the series, This Shit Happens on Band Camp, takes you into the wonderfully chaotic world of Army Cadets, where military discipline meets teenage enthusiasm, common sense occasionally goes AWOL, and even the best-laid plans can turn into absolute disasters.
From unforgettable characters and spectacular mishaps to the sort of incidents that would make a commanding officer reach for the headache tablets, Adam shares the true stories of what happens when a group of cadets, a few unsuspecting adults and the unpredictability of life on camp come together.
It's military-style organisation.
It's teenage chaos.
And it's living proof that no amount of planning can prevent shit from happening.
But that's only the beginning.
There are plenty more stories.
Plenty more chapters.
And unfortunately for Adam…
Plenty more shit that happened.
Welcome to This Shit Happens. You really couldn't make this shit up!
