Why would someone 10 days from her book deadline NEED submissions from other people? And why would you need them if you were a genuinely frugal person?

Why are you writing a book you know nothing about you pleb

So true. My mum was obsessed with Audrey Eaton’s ‘the F plan diet’. I hated that fucking book & I still despise bran & raisins-my sister got to 16 and put on about 5 stone
If anyone’s seen war of the roses, there’s a great scene where the kids end up overweight after Kathleen Turner says ‘I read about it, kids who are given sweets all the time don’t grow up to be obese’.

My specialist subject would be trying to click on any reaction other than ‘like’ on Tattle when the ‘copy/look-up/share’ always hovers over it in the way, and trying to click round it, and the whole thing being highlighted, then clicking like then unlike twice, then trying to quickly nip in *under* the highlighted text to click on laugh. Then leaving it a few seconds to see if the ‘copy/look-up/share’ has disappeared and trying the whole process again.

Where is this magic money pot coming from to pay for contributions when her rent bounced?
She'll just send them a lengthy email about how utterly AWFUL it is that [insert random collection of injuries/harassment/illnesses/rent bouncing/stolen fees mean that she's not able to make payment RIGHT NOW and she'll pay them either when she gets the money she's owed or alternatively, they could have a FREE Patreon subscription where they only have to pay the bottom tier price for the top tier freebies.

Actually I can believe she was asked to be on celebrity mastermind, the BBC need four people for each show and the seem to make hundreds of episodes (slight hyperbole but you get me). Most of the contestants are neither celebrities nor masterminds, they’ve had Charlotte Crosby on there so the bar is clearly pretty damn low. Jack probably refused because the fee was too small.
