Unable to sleep one night, Cowell made his way downstairs, found a notebook and pen, and started to write even though he couldn't read what he was putting down. I wrote for three hours nonstop, describing everything that had happened and giving it a timeline, he says.
It got me writing more and more, he says. Cowell: While it was tough reliving my experience, it felt like a release.' Photograph: Christopher Thomond/The Guardian
