One day, after years interviewing strangers in my job as a journalist, I started wondering what it would be like to interview my friends.
My husband, who is responsible for stopping me when I get a crazy idea, encouraged me to pursue it.
I rounded up twelve of my bravest friends. I gave them baked goods, hot drinks and questions; they gave me their stories.
The result, a short work called “All My Friends Are Characters”, weaves together the stories of twelve "ordinary" thirty-somethings.
The friends it features include a social worker with first-hand experience of abusive relationships, a French woman suffering from ennui, and a father of four who recently stumbled into his dream job.
There's also a woman who suffered pre-natal depression, a man who chased the woman he loved across the world, and a nurse with chronic fatigue syndrome.
The book is a testimony to the fact that each one of us has stories worth telling.
