38. Andrew Hutchinson: The writing process & self-doubt, understanding others' perspectives, & ONE.

Words and Nerds: Authors, books and literature.

Andrew Hutchinson, Australian author of ONE and Rohypnol discusses his new novel, the challenges of writing and how to overcome writing obstacles. He chats openly and honestly about self-doubt and writing for the purpose of understanding others and their perspectives. We talk about moral ambiguities, authenticity and the impact of social media on what it means to be human. The novel brings forth so many questions about the meaning of our lives. ONE is a thought provoking novel that asks questions about obsession, mental health and how far we go for love. It is also about retribution and the consequences we face when we wrong others. A dark novel that traces the story of a young man trapped in a muddled dreamlike existence, as he attempts to unravel his past and his present. Such a wonderful chat!
