Dean Maynard thinks he is psychic, he claims that for the past eight years he has been able to bring good luck to those around him.

Since a young age Dean has been interested in all things paranormal, he studies ghost stories and hauntings and he attends weekend investigations into spooky goings on with other enthusiasts.

When Dean is not investigating the paranormal he sends out press releases about himself and his abilities. 

I had been give twenty minutes notice that I would have a call from Rocky’s mom.

Not knowing anything about Jackie Stallone - the mother of musclebound actor Sly - I hurriedly prepared a series of questions about him and passed them over to my news-editor.

Having been a scribe for just two weeks I was hoping for some encouragement or much needed advice. Instead he sat there, shaking his head. After what felt like an eternity he looked up and said just one word “Rumpology” ... then my phone started ringing.

Bemused I sat back at my desk and picked up the phone, it was a PR woman who introduced herself and said Jackie was in a rush, she would only have a couple of minutes " ... and don’t mention Sly.”
