Discovered this Live Journal page which has some “diary” entries dated from 1936-1937. I don't know if these are really Errol's writing or not. Sure looks like it. Maybe this link has been posted here before. Some of the entries are very interesting, especially since I just finished reading My Wicked Wicked Ways again. Last time was 25 years ago. These journal entries are not from the book.

Any Flynn expert will spot these “diary entries” as phonies in two seconds.

Hi Russ;
I read Live Journal quite a while back and it is very entertaining, let's say it has an “ERROLIAN” flavor. The writer states that it is based on information out of Thomas McNulty's book “The Life and Career of Errol Flynn”, which is a great book.
Sort of like we get from Australia by Pete Johnson “Rock itt”, which is all based on “My Wicked, Wicked Ways” and also done very cleverly. Very enjoyable reading! You should read it and you can read all the back issues on their website. David just posted the April issue! Enjoy!
All nicely done in very good taste!

Hi Thomas;
I thought Errolian was quite cute, it's all in good fun and I told Russ your book is great – I love it – and I am sure so do we all!
Don't shoot us just yet – please!
Take care!
