Ashley Geelan has a lifetime passion for writing, researching, literature, politics, issues, photography, media, radio, technology and computers since a young boy. At 10-years of-age (1988), he created his own newspaper The Geelan Globe which was produced on a mechanical typewriter using The Lettering Book for masthead and headlines et al. The Geelan Globe was then photocopied at the Diamond Valley Library and distributed via his morning paper round to letterboxes around St Helena, Eltham, Eltham North and Greensborough, before school inside The Sun, The Age & The Australian. The "company" name "Geelan Media" begins.
