I wrote Freak Out! My Life with Frank Zappa after a producer at the BBC advised me to write something that no one else could write, and no one else could write about my experiences living and working with Frank Zappa in Hollywood in 1968. It describes Frank's home life, not shown in other books, from getting up to going to bed, composing at the piano, rehearsing with the Mothers of Invention, visiting rock stars, freaks, family squabbles, and more. It has since been translated into Italian,Spanish and Czech. BBC Radio 4 adapted it into a play, Frank Zappa and Me, on May 6 2015.
