I made a play and it won @FaberBooks New Play Award! After becoming a mum and losing my mum, my writing changed, it fragmented, I thought I'd lost 'it' that spark, but it had just gone deeper, and @estherichardson nurtured it. I made this fever dream keening for my mum, Bridget.

@LNER That’s the second train journey in as many months ruined by people drinking alcohol on the train. The 11am train from Darlington to Kings Cross. 2 hours with swearing and shouting and beer stink. No staff came to check tickets. £124!!! Stop alcohol on trains.

@amyacrepoet @BloomsburyBooks This is in my book basket by my bed. It’s scribbled all over. Pages folded down. I recommend it to all mothers. It helped me beyond reason to understand the detonation that was motherhood. It helped me to appreciate and accept the mothering I got. ❤️

@AdamJFarrer Sadly that's exactly what I was told! By my publicist! But I'm clearly over it. So very chuffed for you and it's an exceptional book! The local is universal

Found out that 22% of Cold Fish Soup's physical sales are from the US. It's an essay collection about a faded Yorkshire coastal town that no one cares is falling into the sea. Don't let anyone tell you that your story is too regional/northern for global consumption.

It’s a bit like breaking up with the guy who gaslights you only to get back together with the guy who always borrows money and never pays it back. #elections2024

Had a great morning at the launch of Wheatley Hill Heritage Centre's 'Peter Lee' exhibition, which tells the story of the man after whom the East Durham New Town was named. Brilliant to see local schoolchildren learning from the displays - & bump into the lovely @MarieGardiner!
