His writing journey began during a 1960s prison sentence for bank robbery, where he studied journalism. Post-release, Bailey excelled as a versatile writer—novelist, poet, playwright, and screenwriter. He formed a lasting friendship with renowned Canadian author Margaret Laurence until her 1987 passing.

He authored over 15 books, earning accolades like the Margaret Laurence Award for Fiction for "A Stranger to Myself."
