Hello, everyone. It's John here, just letting you know that I've written a book. It's called Thirst: 12 Drinks That Changed My Life, and it's available to pre-order now. In many episodes of How Do You Cope?, you'll have heard me talk about my relationship with alcohol, and in writing Thirst, I wanted to explore what alcohol means. Why did it mean more to me than other people? Why did it mean some things felt better, and why did it mean so many things went wrong? I also talk about lots of other things you'll have heard me and my guests discuss on How Do You Cope?: meditation, physical pain, gratitude, trauma, and therapy. There's even a chapter about my bum and its relationship with Buddhism. So if that piques your interest, Thirst is available to pre-order now, and the audiobook, read by me, is available to save or pre-order wherever you get audiobooks from.
