KEITH MOON STOLE MY LIPSTICK
 
A true story by Judith Wills
 
 
“A bit chick lit, in a non-fiction way. Funny, and
occasionally profound, in a passage-of-life mould.”
– Chris Charlesworth, Editor-in-chief, Omnibus Press
 
“Beautifully captures what it must have been like to be a
young person in the happening times of the late 60’s & 70’s.”
– Sarah MacPherson, chartered psychologist
 
 “A delightful read from the perspective  
of an innocent in the 60’s/70's lion's den.”
– Tony Prince, ex-Radio Luxembourg DJ
 
 
Today Judith Wills is well known as the best-selling author of food and health books,
with over 2 million books sold (The Food Bible has sold 300,000 copies, and The
Green Food Bible is out now).
 
But for eight years she made her living in the world of London pop music and show
business, writing for a teen magazine.  What she ironically calls her ‘fabulous career’
started when, despite non-existent secretarial skills, she won the job of ‘Ed’s Sec’ on
the mega-selling pop magazine of the late sixties, Fab-208.
 
KEITH MOON STOLE MY LIPSTICK tells the story of what happened in the years
after she arrived, as a ‘naïve, country bumpkin 17-year-old’ on Fleet Street, fresh
from a caravan home with posters of her favourite stars on her wall, sick with fear
over her forthcoming interview and wearing the wrong clothes.

Alongside the funny and fascinating story of her new life, encounters with all her
heroes and the big stars of the day, and 30 pages of original photographs, Judith, via
a series of flashbacks to her own childhood, offers a more serious insight into how
pop culture can offer young people a safe antidote to loneliness and depression.
 
KEITH MOON STOLE MY LIPSTICK, serialised in the Daily Mail in August.
 
Judith Wills is available for all media interviews or feature writing.
