About this listen

By the age of twenty, Lucy Spraggan had already experienced more extraordinary things than many do across a lifetime. Growing up in a creative household, surrounded by artists, alcohol and raucous parties, by her late teens she had played pubs, clubs and festivals, fallen in love with an older woman on a US road trip, experimented with drink and drugs, and been in and out of police custody.

When her X Factor audition went viral in 2012, Lucy became the bookies' favourite to win the show. She was the first contestant ever to write and perform her own original songs, refusing to be pigeonholed by stylists and producers. Viewers fell for her unmanufactured, anti-pop princess stance, and the tabloids loved her.

Then, suddenly, mid-way through the live shows, Lucy dropped out. The public were told Lucy was unwell.

Now, for the first time, Lucy is ready to tell her story, in her own words.

Process is a book about the vicious impact of trauma across a lifetime; it is about Lucy's successes and mistakes, her journey towards sobriety, calm and something like peace. Most of all, Process is an extraordinary story about a gifted artists and an expose of the toxic underbelly of noughties celebrity culture and reality TV.

What an awesome writer Lucy Spraggan is! I remember watching her on X factor and being disappointed when she left the show. To discover the truth behind that and to hear such a raw and open account of Lucy’s life has been truly gripping and heartwarming. Well done Lucy for exposing the truth behind big corporations who don’t care about contestants.
I highly recommend this audible book, especially as Lucy brings so much passion and honesty. She’s right to feel so proud, what a fantastic example of survival and determination to succeed and what an inspiration Lucy is!

Absolutely the best autobiography I’ve ever listened to!

Listening to Lucy's story was at times hard, however, I got going and am glad I did.

I have followed Lucy since X Factor and now all her songs have a new meaning to me, now I know the background to them.

Onward Lucy xxxx
