Kogu kõvakaanevaheline temaatika on vahel õudselt piinlik või siis väga meeldivalt elulik, oleneb vaatenurgast. Mulle isiklikult meeldisid kirjaniku mõtted väga, eks mulle istub ta videokunst ka. Mulle mehena olid osad kohad eriti huvitavad teada saada, aga eks tegelikult olin näiteks "queef" tähenduse juba varem üles otsinud Hayley Morrise lühivideo tõttu. Ikka huvitav, kuidas inimkeha funktsioneerib.... Hayley Morris: If anyone’s reading it that has watched any of my sketches before, it’s going to be similar to that – but a lot more vulnerable, honest, open. It has some of the things that I have touched on in sketches before, but I’ve gone much deeper into it. I’ve tried to do it in a comedic way, but there are also very vulnerable moments: talking about my dad’s death, talking about intrusive thoughts, health anxiety – and things that I’ve done that I think make me sound a little bit unhinged.

Currently, the biggest career goal is to be in a series on HBO Max, very specifically The White Lotus . But anything on HBO. I’m obsessed. I feel like they just create some of the best shows. And they’re different – not like everything else you see. That’s what I love. Now, I’m not going to dispute that the book is funny but I’m also not going to say that this book is about overthinking as it isn’t about overthinking in the way the dictionary states overthinking is –‘think about (something) too much or for too long’. Thoughts that go on and on. Yeah, you have to kill your darlings! You may love it, but sadly it’s exactly the same thing without that line that you think is really clever and witty. Hayley Morris's debut is a fresh, very funny take on 21st-century high-functioning anxiety... an insightful, intimate account of modern life that is a joy to read, with shades of Dolly Alderton's Everything I Know about Love Scarlett Sangster, iNewsI think mainly to start a conversation. At the end, I say ‘I can’t fix you – you’re not broken’. None of what I’ve written is there to be full-on advice, because I don’t think I can advise someone on what they should and shouldn’t do. But I can say, ‘Hey, if you relate to this, then just know that that’s probably how we all are’. There’s so many chapters in there that I’m writing to help people have those open conversations with their friends – or even to just think about it themselves.

Exactly! It was a really good learning curve. It was really fun, don’t get me wrong – I had such a good time doing it. But also I learned so much. That’s good! I remember there’s a moment in Me vs Brain where you say the brain overthinks because it’s trying to imagine the worst possible outcome. And that made me personally feel… Just generally a lot less evil! Sometimes, intrusive thoughts can make you feel like a terrible person. So I was wondering, with the book subtitled ‘an overthinker’s guide to life’, was reassurance the goal? Or what were you looking to do? Mulle jäi Hayley Morris millalgi Youtubes silma, tal on nimelt palju väga tabavaid elulisi lühivideosid. Kuna sarnasel puhul ühe teise juutuuberi raamat (Kristina Kuzmic "Hold On, But Don't Hold Still: Hope and Humor from My Seriously Flawed Life") oli väga lahe, siis mõtlesin, et proovin järgi. I am such an over-thinker as well, so when I started reading the book, I found it really refreshing how open you are! You say at the start that you found writing a book daunting – how did you find the process after getting over that initial jump?It is so interesting – I never really thought about how scared we are to talk about something that most of us probably experience. It’s just a really weird, shared silence. Hello! Hayley Morris here. You might have seen me on your feed dressed up as a vagina. People seem to find me quite funny. I'm on a mission to prove once and for all that You. Are. Not. A. Weirdo... Or, maybe, We. Are. All. Weirdos. Yes, you're not the only one whose body does that gross thing you've never even told your mum about. And yes, we're all walking around saying embarrassing things constantly and waking up in a cold sweat at 3am thinking about them. So we might as well have a laugh about it, right? It just made sense to me, because I think you have to write what you know. I always knew it would be called Me vs Brain , but I wasn’t entirely sure what I would include in there. But every time I was writing something I was like, ‘right, this is the topic I really think it’s important to talk about’, and then I just wrote what I knew, and then it all kind of slotted into place. No heakene küll. Oli ju hea? Meil kõigil on oma sisekõne, vadin, ruminatsioon. Inglane Hailey Morris kannatas selle all tükk aega, aga siis selgus, et ta polegi psühhopaat, kui peas olev hääl käsib teinekord kõrvalolev inimene auto alla lükata või lahtisest aknast alla hüpata. Kui koroona mööda maad ringi uitas, siis hakkas Morris mingi hetk lühivideosid tegema ning sai kiirelt populaarseks, praeguseks on tal Youtubes üle miljoni tellija (eks ta on mujal sotsiaalmeediplatvormides ka). Ma ütleks küll, et montaaž on tal natuke liiga kiire, eriti esmakordsel vaatamisel tuleb ilmselt mitu korda üle vaadata, et kõigest aru saada. A noh, moodsad, tõtlikud ajad.
