Neil Renton and Mark Fleming met through The Changing Room, a 12-week support program run by Scottish Action for Mental Health. The Changing Room was pioneered at Hibernian FC in Edinburgh before similar sessions were rolled out across many other senior Scottish football clubs. Attending these drop-ins, Neil and Mark discovered a shared interest in creative writing, both admitting they found this activity inspirational and therapeutic. This led to them bouncing ideas off each other, initiating fiction writing via simple prompts. They took turns sending each other song titles randomly selected from their phone playlists. These prompts became the spark to construct a short story. This exercise proved to be cathartic, giving both ideas for plots, characters, and settings. If 'writers block' ever set in, the next selection of songs would be requested! Taking this a step further, they began not only crafting new pieces inspired by these random songs, but also digging into their respective back catalogues of fiction, revamping older stories. As well as stories, many containing semi-autobiographical elements, they wrote essays about how their musical tastes have benefited their wellbeing. Finally, they interviewed each other about their respective mental health journeys, transforming sometimes harrowing flashbacks into poignant memoirs. HEIDS UP is the result: a collection of flash fiction, longer short stories, essays on musical appreciation, and descriptions of lived mental health experiences. This book will resonate with anyone who has faced issues of their own, directly or indirectly. Crucially, HEIDS UP does not represent the conclusion of Neil and Mark's collaboration. It is the start.
