Three events that inspired my upcoming book GIRLS TO THE FRONT (now on Goodreads pls add to your TBR!)

Has anyone on here (esp any hair professionals) used honey or apple cider vinegar on damaged hair to moisture or lighten it?? Is it worth a shot?? I can’t find anything negative online other than it only lightens by a very small amount (but also that you can mix with cinnamon!?)

LinkedIn sent me a notification to say it looked like I was making good use of the app and asked if I was enjoying it. I answered not so much. Then it asked me why.

Just realised it's possible to be normal around strangers. I was doing the other thing

This is going to be a problem for Reform eventually. A lot of them are complete wingnuts. I know lockdown created quite a lot of freshly radicalised loons and conspiracy freaks and we haven't reckoned with that as a society but even so, they don't really sound like a government in waiting do they?

He's not wrong.

Just found this 80s playlist I made in 2020 when I was writing my second novel set in the 80s (still in the proverbial drawer! Might do something with bits of it). Anyway, there’s some right bangers on this one. And isn’t Cruel Summer the best poppy pop song EVER!? open.spotify.com/playlist/4ou...

Going to write a floor plan of my characters’ home today….who knew you needed architectural skills to be a writer. And I haven’t even started on their wardrobes yet…

A tour of the #Hull venues that feature in my books The Twenty Seven Club and Parklife Did you go to any of these?

Do those weird purple fucking lip things work?? Do they!?

Just watched a clip with Josh Wink’s Higher State of Consciousness and now I don’t think I’ll sleep again until I’ve danced to it one more time…

5 things that happen to my characters in my books that have also happened to me….

Great read for this 47 yo who’s still as obsessed with Courtney as she was as a 14 yo….i still have my ltd edition white vinyl of Live Through This - bought on the day it was released…thanks for the lend @mollytie.bsky.social ♥️

Pushing Exeter Phoenix gig next week as it is a bit sluggish on sales exeterphoenix.org.uk/events/robin...

Had REALLY bad writer’s block earlier - so much so it physically hurt. But I *think* I’ve sussed my plot niggle now and it just needs to be edited in tomorrow…. Loving working with @goldcaro.bsky.social - such a brilliant and challenging editor who seemingly cares about the project as much as I do!

Seen this going around but I’m Reposting it with the full alt text bc everyone deserves to read this glorious reply from Boy George

WHEN SALLY KILLED HARRY has been described as ‘man hating’ & ‘misogynistic as fuck’ so it’s clearly an inclusive read Also I genuinely love this review: “Entertaining and horrific. I’m still not sure how I feel about it” My work here is done. 🙌🏻💪🏻 Here’s a mood board.

Trump has an ego the size of his crumpling arse, skin as thin as gossamer and more grudges to bear than grains of sand on the Mar-a-Lago beach. So can't see this playing out in Musk's favour. news.sky.com/story/elon-m...

Essential, emotional, entertaining and traumatic viewing. This series won’t last me five minutes. Make sure you watch What it Feels Like for a Girl from Paris Lees

This is what Capitol Police expected him to do on Jan 6. He didn’t.

Why am I getting the arse-end of religion’s Facebook posts preaching that drag queens don’t belong around kids cos they’re ’confused enough already’. Ok. Cancel the UK panto industry and stop teaching Shakespeare in schools cos that dirty dog William clearly started it all. FFS

This took me AGES 🤣🤣 it’s clear I’ll never be an editor but please have pity on me, forgive the timing/text mistakes and watch and share…

Books for 90s music fans. Featuring fictional cameos from Senseless Things and Beautiful South and King Rupert (90s #Hull band). Oh - and both are set in Hull, smash mental health stereotypes and explore friendship, fandom and recovery - with a few laughs and a dog called Trevor

A satisfying vinyl flat lay….except it’s not *that* satisfying because it reminds me of all the unforgettable vinyl I sold to pay for forgettable nights out at Spiders or Welly or Silhouette….but this is a small selection of the small collection that survived)

Does your pet have a theme tune?

Living with someone with pretty extreme ADHD as someone with big extroversion tendencies is tough. When they’re trying to leave the house and need total hyper focus silence to check they have everything and you just thought of something you DESPERATELY need to share vocally 🤣

If, as a teen in the 90s, I bought music on labels such as 4AD, Ninja Tunes, SubPop (yes, v broad variety there) - what current artists on those labels should I get off my lazy nostalgic arse for and listen to today?

Reform. You put your far right in, your far right out, in, out, in, out and grift your arse about. You talk a load of bollox but you’re not called out. And that’s what it’s all about.

Y’all have to understand, much like Freedom of Speech Absolutists, folks who want us to leave the European Convention on Human Rights - want *their* human rights protected, just like they want *their* free speech protected.

Note to Democrats hungry for Elon Musk's money: The answer isn't to suck up to him. If you suck up to him, all that will happen is that he'll take more money from American taxpayers. The answer is to tax the shit out of him.
