I Booked the Worst Seat on Purpose | SpeakingSÖS #7

Scwair One presents Speaking of Success (SÖS) – episode seven, solo. A spoken word night in Brighton, a deliberate seat choice, and what going out on your own can feels like when it's something you avoid like the plague.

I don't really go out much these days. Haven't for a while.

We moved down to Brighton from London. Most of my friends stayed there. I stopped drinking on New Year's Eve 2019. Covid did the rest. So when I committed to 30 days of public speaking, I probably should've thought harder about how exactly I was going to pull that off.

Last week I went to a spoken word night at Brighton's Corn Exchange. 
On my own.

Before booking, I noticed there were plenty of seats in the back row. 
And a single seat in the row in front. I picked that one. On purpose.

That decision set off a small chain of things I didn't expect. One of them ended in a multi-storey car park at 11pm, writing something I'd never have written if I'd sat anywhere else.
