Good morning Australia. My book about finding happiness in a life of rugby-based suffering is available now. penguin.co.nz/books/rugby-he…

2/2 Yes, writing and publishing are pathetically underfunded, but that’s because the government has never given a shit about them. It’s right to criticise the government for that, and to interrogate MCH funding decisions. It’s wrong to attack good people trying to do good things.

1/2 Brough Johnson is my friend. She started Narrative Muse to improve the representation in media of women and the LGBTQ+ community. She has worked so hard on it for so long because those are things she cares about.

Apply for this job if you'd like to hear seemingly endless stories about my kids.

Get prepped for New Year’s Eve with this hilarious guide to surviving party season. First review, from my wife: “That’s really sad.” nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/news…

Michelle Hurley is New Zealand’s most underrated judge of talent

Cherie Howie is New Zealand’s most underrated journalist

@kimknightnz @sarahdaniell *1990s

@sarahdaniell just referred to @ByGregBruce and I as "ya little spunks" and if only our actual 1980's had been like this.

A story I wrote in today’s @NZHCanvas about taking the train with Neil, arguably Auckland Transport’s most valuable employee. nzherald.co.nz/canvas-magazin…

@kimknightnz @sarahdaniell I don’t get it.

Editor: I've moved some things around so you don't need to cut that story now. Colleague: Oh. I've been cutting it this morning. But in doing so, I made it longer ... (This Most-Feature-Writing-Conversation-Ever brought to you by @ByGregBruce and @sarahdaniell)

@chris__schulz No. Very different person

@ByGregBruce Wait - is this the same person who I sat next to for six months who ate the exact same bowl of porridge in exactly the same way at the exact same time every day?

Ignore the headline. This is actually the story of how I went to New York City to become a DJ and instead achieved enlightenment. nzherald.co.nz/lifestyle/news…

Tfw someone who asks if you’re mining them for a story is mining you for a tweet

Voyager bait nzherald.co.nz/business/news/…

Is there a podcast category called “At least three episodes shorter than the creators wanted”? I’d listen to everything on it twice.

When my wife finished reading this confessional she said, “Well, that was concerning.” nzherald.co.nz/travel/news/ar…

@NaomiArnold Totally agree re meals and taking the toddler off her hands for a bit. Odds are she has no time or energy. Make her cup/s of tea or whatever. Do her dishes. Sweep her floor. Tell her how cute her kids are.

@CritiKarl It’s been worth it

@CritiKarl Came to same realisation about three years ago. Tropicana is mature songcraft, poignant and thick with meaning. Go go is a kids’ singalong.

@ashleigh_young Hopefully before your next deadline.
