“I have written books and I cannot unwrite them. I cannot unbelieve what I believe. I cannot unlive my life” - Hilary Mantel, Wolf Hall. So very sad to hear of the death of the magnificent Dame Hilary Mantel. What a loss and what a legacy she leaves us with.

Yessss, such a great idea for a book - can't wait to get my hands on copy! When I was an intern at Penguin Press, Louise shared some of her genius of copywriting with me and I've never forgotten her tips! Very exciting news, congratulations

With the whole @AngelaRayner thing - i had 40 years of media calling me 'thick' etc - nothing to do with my grammar - I went to top Catholic grammar school in Manchester - they hate the fact she is northern and working class ...they hate her journey . Something they can't beat
Just finished another term of AMAZING creative writing with @Charlie_Lat - learned so much and so proud to have finshed an exciting piece!!
