Tonight’s #TOTP reminding me that I won a signed Captain Sensible album in a Smash Hits competition in 1982. And probably still have it stashed away somewhere. 😁

Incoming date with Serbian prog metallers, me? 😁 #gig

Appear to have removed the top layer of skin from my best typing finger with a jar opener, the very thing designed to prevent you being injured from hard-to-open jars. Guess the next book will have to wait…..😩 #booksky

Great night at Wembley watching The Prodigy and their many lasers. 😁 #gig

I feel like it’s going to be a good evening. 😁

Right, well this made my morning :) So good to see people still enjoying Troublemaker nearly a year after it hit shelves...#booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

#TOTP 1999 just peaked. While reminding me that it’s 27 years old since Hey Boy Hey Girl came out *faints*

Not sure what was weirder about today’s commute: the brave person in shorts (in anticipation of it being at least 16 degrees later) or some young ‘un offering me a seat on the bus because I am now that elderly, apparently. 😳 #wednesday #humpday

Heading home after a bloody awesome @baytales.bsky.social festival. And as terrifying as it was Noir At The Bar was one epic night. 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

A fab night talking all things Troublemaker - and spilling a few book two secrets - at Northfields Library in Ealing. Thanks to everyone who came and to the lovely folks there for having me! #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

What’s that you say? Little old me taking part in #noiratthebaybar at @baytales.bsky.social next weekend? So excited to be on the bill for this and talk all things Troublemaker. It’s going to be an awesome weekend. 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

#TOTP tonight reminding me that the New Radicals had a huge hit with You Get What You Give (aka one of the best songs of the 90s), followed up with an awesome album, announced a show, cancelled the show and split up in the course of a few months. 😁 I had tickets for that gig too 😳

So excited to be heading to Northfields Library in Ealing next month to talk all things Troublemaker (and slip a few clues in about book two!) Ticket info is below if you want to come along and watch me in action 😁 #booksky @vulpinepress.bsky.social

Sorry but I can no longer hear Cuddly Toy by Roachford without wanting to lean out of the nearest window midway through and shout ‘YOUR FOG LAMPS ARE ON….’ #TOTP

Meanwhile, daughter's second student mag piece of the month highlights an important, and very personal issue. ❤️ www.strandmagazine.co.uk/single-post/...

“Every Body Knows” Highlights Why We Need To Speak Out About Women’s Reproductive Health

Writer Emily Bunder reviews the "Every Body Knows" exhibition, part of the CMCI Winter Festival 2025.

My daughter's latest uni mag piece confirms that your ex really DOESN'T deserve a revenge dress. 😀 www.hercampus.com/school/kcl/y...

Your Ex Doesn’t Deserve A Revenge Dress!

Making the case to abandon the concept of revenge dressing, putting yourself first!

No of course I didn’t find #thetraitors finale unbearably tense, whatever gave you that idea? 😳🤣

2026 is the National Year of Reading. Whether you favour a paperback, ebook, audio or comic book just pick one up and give it a go. Reading has so many benefits, what do you have to lose? www.vulpine-press.com #booksky #nationalyearofreading #mentalhealth #amreading

Last Saturday: living it up on my holidays, flying business class, staying in a lovely hotel, eating pizza and sipping cocktails and generally living it up. This Saturday: sitting at home in my pyjamas trying to guess the identity of a singing sloth. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 #maskedsinger

Blondie’s awesome Maria on #TOTP is reminding me that it was around this period of my life that I ended up on the same flight as Deborah Harry. Would have been a better claim to fame if we’d actually spoken, mind. 😁

New Year, New...Books! Happy New Year from all of us at Vulpine Press! We're so excited for what's to come this year, including new releases from bestsellers Jaqueline Druga, Devon C Ford, Riall Nolan, C. R. Westbrook, and SO many more! Stay tuned! #booksky #newyear #amreading #readinggoals

Apologies for the old radio silence - been on holiday, while helping my daughter move countries (albeit temporarily). Exciting bookish things will return soon, I promise. 😁 #amediting #booksky

Nothing says spirit of Christmas quite like trawling through four shops at 5pm on Christmas Eve for a last minute pack of mini mince pies 😁 Consider the festive season saved.

Pop quiz, #TOTP 1990 viewers, what song knocked Cliff’s Saviour’s Day off the number one spot? It worries me a little that of all the number ones in all the world this is the one I’ve never forgotten 😁

Watching #TOTP 1990’s Christmas special with some trepidation, remembering that this was the year I started work in magazines. Am elderly. 😳

Just one of those days where I have to buy another 27 books on my Kindle because I've got a trip coming up and I'm worried the 150 or so unread ones I have on there won't be enough...😆 #booksky

Books make great Christmas gifts. Even more so if I’ve written them 😜 #booksky

Daughter's latest blog entry sheds light on why making the trek out to Alexandra Palace was worth it to see the blimmin' awesome Electric Callboy. 😀 #blog #review somethingem.wordpress.com/2025/12/15/e...

Electric Callboy Can’t Play Darts, But They Slayed Ally Pally

I hate Alexandra Palace. I spent many a childhood day out there and used to love it, but when my dad stopped driving me everywhere, my trips stopped too. So, it’s in an awkward part of North London…

The irony that I am watching Robin Beck sing Coke anthem The First Time on #TOTP 1988 while sipping my beverage of choice has not been lost on me. 😁

Have an author Christmas party straight from work tonight so havedressed up, just a little. By 8.16am my belt had snapped off and had already trodden on my skirt hem approximately eight times 🤦🏻‍♀️ #authorlife
