Asked someone to sense-check a new story for me. Her first comment “Tem, have you written a book for anti-Zionist Jewish children?” is the best review I could ask for, probably.

Beyond thrilled to have been chosen as the winner of the Kelpies Prize for Writing 2025 - I had such a great time meeting the other shortlisted writers especially, and am very excited to see where this road takes me!

We're delighted to announce the #KelpiesPrize 2025 shortlist! Congratulations to:

“Hillary should defs get the jail for using personal emails, but if I add my fave influencer to the totally-legal-bomb-planning gc, that’s cool, yeh?”

The US is truly a parody of itself at this stage

Yeah after I unlocked it I immediately tried a run and it was such a brain melt - but have been having lots of fun with it after the reset of a night’s sleep!

What it feels like unlocking the plasma deck in Balatro after 5 days of punishing 7th/8th ante game overs at blue stake difficulty

Was it worth it?

If you’re angry about Neil Gaiman and haven’t read any Tanith Lee - read the Tales from the Flat Earth books and get angrier.

He’s always been a sleazy opportunist who takes without regard. The allegations against him are harrowing and sadly not at all hard to believe.

Have I found the perfect board game bag in a repurposed Deliveroo pizza backpack, or is the fact that it now weighs more than my 7 year old a sign that it’s a bad idea?

That sounds like such a great class! I’m going to suggest some sort of workshop to the school as well so it’s more than just an angry email - maybe a disability justice through music class is the way to go.

If I go into the high school to address the teens who abuse me in the street when I pass each day, what should I suggest they can sing at me instead of “they see me rollin”?

If my #disabilitylife needs to come with a theme tune I at least want to pick it!

Pleeeeease no more ridin dirty…
