I also want to recommend, with all my heart, @whatsamadder's "I Never Said I Loved You" - inhaled it over the weekend: one of the most painfully true, honest, dark and barkingly-funny books on depression, sex, self-loathing & being a man. Interstellar writing. Quite breathtaking.

First up: @whatsamadder's ‘I Never Said I Loved You’ is the book that makes other authors want to give up. A masterclass in imagery 'I tried to get into the [goth] music, a lot of which sounded like food poisoning being distributed by tornado'.
ALT A red book cover with white writing saying 'I never said I loved you: Life, death and things unsaid' by Rhik Samadder, with dark blue scribbles behind the write writing.

I found What About Men by @caitlinmoran to be deeply humane, urgent and countercultural. We need more of her, but there's only one

I'm teaching a week long course in life writing at this ravishing French chateau in June. There's yoga, wild swimming, local food. The perfect retreat to explore one's creativity- you should come!

It's wonderfully unsettling to be pointed to someone who looks unfathomably like you. Like meeting yourself at a party.

Moustaches are back, but should they be? I got high off my own facial hair supply to find out for you
‘You look like an Agatha Christie villain!’ The moustache is back – but should it go away again? theguardian.com/fashion/2022…

Very excited to be talking at the Isle of Wight literary festival this Sunday 9th. Death! Trauma! Tuna! Memoir!
(I'll also be at my favourite IoW deli eating pasties, if that's your scene)

Rhik could read out his little poem sitting on the loo and dressed as Eva Braun and I would still love him but getting through this whole piece without a Rick/Rhik gag is an oversight @whatsamadder theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…

For today's @ObsMagazine I wrote about the ick, the funniest and saddest thing in modern dating. It has led to some wild conversations.

Loneliness can feel trivial, when swamped by global events. But who we are in our heads is our entire world. Here's little me, talking about ways to cope.

True honour to speak to @whatsamadder as I adored 'I Never Said I Loved You'. In this episode he speaks so beautifully about complete loneliness, how we all live alone inside our skulls and when loneliness comes it's a chance to slow down: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcas…
