Dippydebs1987 asked a great question. "There are moments in your writing that feel guided by fate or 'the universe.' Do you believe in a deterministic world where things happen for a reason, or is the philosophy of your book rooted in finding meaning within chaos?"

JordynsCanvas wanted to know "Love this audiobook. Having your voice and your soul filling the room in any way is inspiring. Did you plot out this story in advance or did it evolve more as Seth’s running diary of his journey?"

Michael Stone asked "Parts of the novel felt autobiographical. Were there times during the writing process when you thought, 'This is too much me and not enough Seth'?"

Helen Bladette wondered "If Seth's brush with death served as the ultimate cosmic mulligan for his existence and artistry, what pivotal 'mulligan' in your own career would you refine to amplify the triumphs while evading the soul-crushing pitfalls, and how did that very motivation fuel your desire to pen this debut novel?"

Crystal Collins asked "First, as someone who is 1,525 days sober I want to say thank you for writing a piece that reminds me why I’m sober. To that point how on earth did you describe so accurately Seth’s dealer’s home? It took me back to a place I didn’t think I’d revisit again."

My team will be sharing more answers from me over the next few weeks, so please keep an eye on my socials. Nothing but love 🙏
Jeff Kempton asked "You’re known for creating songs in the moment via jam sessions and stream of consciousness. Was it difficult to switch to a medium that requires much more organized thoughts and planning?"

You may have missed that "Happy" by Seth Brakes was quietly released on streaming services a few months ago. Tim reinterpreted Seth's demo into this tender love song, an action that has been controversial amongst Lucky Fuckers fans. Listen here: open.spotify.com/track/7t6K1…
You can also hear more reinterpreted music, from Tim and Seth on the "When I Died For The First Time" audiobook.
