Hello, and thank you for looking at my Patreon profile. I have been writing about Scientology for over 20 years and am the author of Ron the War Hero, the definitive biography of L. Ron Hubbard's military career.
I'm currently writing a new book which takes an inside look at Scientology's campaigns against its foes, reveals the secrets of its intelligence operations and tells the story of how it has managed to weather its opposition. I've carried out research on four continents, uncovering thousands of pages of previously hidden documents. The book will tell many previously unreported stories from Scientology's secret history and help to explain why the organisation has been so resilient in the face of opposition. It'll shed a new and at times startling light on Scientology's often contentious history. The project is currently at an advanced stage, and I envisage publishing it at some point in 2020.
Over the past year, some of the research that will appear in the book has appeared on Tony Ortega's blog, The Underground Bunker, and I've previously documented some of Scientology's intelligence activities at Scientology's Secret Service . My research on Scientology has featured in other authors' books and I contributed to both the book and film versions of Lawrence Wright's "Going Clear". I've also documented Scientology's conflict with the IRS, its pseudoscientific "drug rehab" program Narconon, and its "Study Technology" system.
If you've enjoyed my writing and feel that it's worth supporting, I'd be very grateful for help with the ongoing costs of this research, which currently involves obtaining material from European libraries and archives. Thanks for your attention and your time and whatever support you would like to give.
