Coutts was shown copies of London Life for the first time. Mr. W. of MacNaught placed Coutts in contact with a retired mariner in Sydney who sold high heeled shoes using the trade name and pseudonym of ‘Achilles’. Achilles was a seller of High heel shoes who regularly corresponded and advertised in “London Life”. Coutts visited Achilles and the two became friends. Achilles placed Coutts in contact with the American Social Circle surrounding Charles Guyette. Coutts moved to New York and changed his name to John Willie.

Coutts’ first published works appear in London Life magazine. Coutts also contributed to other Men’s Magazines such as “Flirt” and “Wink”.
