From Angry Resident to Published Author: Surgeon On The Edge

From Angry Resident to Published Author: Surgeon On The Edge

Today is February 24th — release day.

Frances Mei and Colin sit down on the eve of launch to talk about what it feels like to finally let Surgeon on the Edge go. After three years of drafting, redrafting, anger, resistance, breakthroughs, and letting go of control, the book is no longer a mirror — it’s an old photograph.

In this intimate conversation, they unpack:

  1. Why the first draft “wasn’t true”
  2. How anger transformed into clarity
  3. What it means to create art without controlling its reception
  4. Why writing the book changed Frances Mei more than publishing it ever could
  5. The difference between being an “angry person” and being overwhelmed
  6. The real breakthrough (spoiler: there wasn’t just one)

They also talk book tour, color-coded Canva calendars, cozy gaming optimization strategies, and why sometimes you need someone who knows who you are — and will break it to you gently.

The book is out today. The work is finished. The interpretation is not.

You get in life what you have the courage to ask for.
