RanDumb: The Adventures of an Irish Guy in L.A. Series

About this series
Mark Hayes has been dubbed "Ireland's craziest and wittiest writer, a poet at times". Saying that, he has also been called "the runt of Irish litter-ature" so take your pick. Before the #1 Amazon Humour book RANDUMB: THE ADVENTURES OF AN IRISH GUY IN LA there was PREDUMB, the hilarious stories of Mark growing up in Cork, the real capital of Ireland, as they like to call it.
This is a me-moir of sorts, the history of Mark Hayes, although if his parents are within earshot he will tell you it is all lies and slander. Sex in the mud? Never. Stabbing himself by mistake? No clue. Thrown in jail? Stealing from the deaf? Becoming a hairdresser in the name of lust? Blasphemy! All that stuff about wearing grannies' clothes, frolicking in Germany and mother and daughter sexcapades all before the age of sixteen? Complete and utter spoof. Don't mention the first-class trip to Hong Kong to become a model either, just a fairytale. Particularly the part about waking up naked being hosed down by an angry Chinese man.
One thing for certain is that this book has everything you need for a laugh. So go on, buy it. See what all the fuss is about.

Amazon Bestseller Rated #1 on Amazon Humour Includes forewords from Robbie Williams, Craig Robinson and Caridee English. We all talk about it: Changing our lives. What we're going to do, want to do, wish we'd done! Until... Game over, flat line. Maybe next time. RanDumb tells the story of an Irish Mark who one day decided to make the change. Took a shot. Gave it a shot. Left the real world behind. Swapped the green fields of Ireland for Hollywood. Chasing the dream. Chasing his tail. RanDumb takes the reader on an unforgettable journey through the real world of life in LA, seen through a unique Irish perspective: Random. Dumb. Fun. Models. Actors. Parties. Porn. Orgies. Nutters. Producers. Directors. Singers. Hippies. Leprechauns. Dancing. Prancing. Drink. Drugs. Freaks. Fakes. Friends. Stand up. Knocked down. Dressed up. Stripped down. Troughs. Hills. Gutters. Stars. Highest highs! Lowest lows. Trying to make it. All the time. Mark Hayes has lived the life in LA, and has an assortment of scars to prove it. The message rings out from every page: Give it a go. Live life. Go with the flow. (Just maybe think twice about scat-singing, leprechaun-obsessed hippies.) It is not often that a global icon, one of the world's top comedic actors (US Office, Hot Tub Time Machine) and the winner of America's Next Top Model come together in acknowledging an Irish published book by a debut Irish author.

From one side of the world to the other, in and out of the fantasy of Mark's reality, all with a smile and a belly-aching laugh, RanDumb-er will draw you in and make you believe in the spirit of your inner five year old once more! Go ahead - Open a Guinness, take off your pants (comfort is key here), sit back, relax and enjoy the show. Fast pace, quicker wit, time for you to join Mark as he tells his story of two cities and one dream. Ran. Dumb. Er. On! Introduction by Robbie Williams. About The Author: Mark Hayes is an Irish guy who now lives in L.A. Chancer. Prancer. Midnight. Dancer. Bestselling author of RanDumb: The Adventures of an Irish Guy in L.A! which has been rated #1 on Amazon Humor. Praise For RanDumb: 'RanDumb is an intelligently put-together, often satirical analysis of the times we live in... a thoroughly entertaining read that will make you 'LOL' -laugh out loud - as so many have done on Mark Hayes' blog.' 'With his unique style, phrasing and word coinage, Mark Hayes introduced himself to us in his first book RanDumb as a kind of hard drinking, half-slacker, half German technical translator, carefree globetrotter finding his way in Hollywood. Very funny and a great read.' 'I've always wanted to give up the mundane day job, pack my bags and head for the promised land, but circumstances have conspired against me. So, when I heard of this book, it was a must read... I wasn't disappointed in the least. It was just how I would have imagined and more... Mark Hayes has shared his experiences of chasing the American Dream and I love it.'
