You wouldn’t believe the unforgivable things that I’ve done to keyboard covers. Or how much I need one as a writer. Keyboard covers aren’t sexy but they are essential. Here’s my hot take on why you need one and my recommendation of which you should get. https://t.co/vcjjz7F9SV

I type holes in keyboard covers. That’s not a metaphor. Actual holes. This one survived.

In 2025 I read 135 books. In 2026 I realised that social media is dead so nobody will see or care about such updates. Which is great as it gives you more time to spend reading.

Is Stranger Things worth watching? I've never seen it. What's it like? The Goonies meets X Files? ET meets IT? Not as good as Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Should I rewatch Buffy? I'll rewatch Buffy.

Nobody is reading so you should write like nobody is reading until people start reading because you're the writer who writes like nobody is reading and then you should keep going because people are reading.

I finally plucked up the courage to record a recruitment video of myself. This isn't the best I can do. It's the least bad I could manage at the time. Instead of humiliating myself privately I decided to share it with you. Trust me, I'm a professional!

Told them to fuck off. Why yes I’m from Yorkshire. How could you tell? Also: I did all this to save four pounds. Did I mention that I’m from Yorkshire?

The alternative was spending more money on customer service phone calls than the clothes I was trying to buy. Solved the problem myself. Then was targeted by scammers trying to impersonate the retailer. This is why we can't have nice things.
