Bella Mackie
Manage episode 299502094 series 2487262
Today's guest is the absolutely brilliant Bella Mackie, author of the fabulous and funny new novel How To Kill Your Family. You may also know her non-fiction work, particularly her phenomenally successful memoir Jog On, which chronicled how taking up running after her first marriage collapsed helped manage her anxiety. It was a bestseller, and she has become one of the most high-profile and refreshingly down-to-earth voices on mental health around.
I loved our conversation, which took in everything from the pomodoro method (she's a fan!) to the research that went into writing her rather bloody book - to the anxiety she experienced in the wake of Jog On's success, having never imagined it would garner so much attention.
We spoke before How To Kill Your Family was published, and Bella was really nervous to see how her first piece of fiction was received - well, it's since become a Sunday Times number one bestseller. Quite right too. I hope you enjoy the interview as much as I did.
