Before I Go Crazy: An Investigative Unearthing of My Mother Stevie Cameron's Excellent, but Now Long Forgotten, Advice — current project.
Part memoir, part reportage, Before I Go Crazy is a reverse engineering of a mother’s book of advice for her daughter — an inquisitive deep dive into the wisdom award-winning journalist and author Stevie Cameron shared with her friends and family but never wrote down. Dementia has stolen Stevie's memory but her daughter Amy is determined to unearth her mother's wisdom once again.
