Trigger warning. This recording involves discussion about mental health and suicide.

In this episode Derek chats with Charlotte Crocker, a prolific author (under the pen name D. E. White) who made a radical decision that transformed her health and set her on a completely different career path. 

We talk about the challenges for authors in the digital age, mental health and creativity, the realities of writing books for a living, and the importance of talking and listening to find a way through it all.

If you are experiencing any of the issues raised in this podcast edition, help is available. You can contact The Samaritans on 116 123.
