No update and she has ignored everyone who has asked her. She does this all time. Huge injury chaos drama one day then it never gets mentioned again.

Awh, could we not use having/recovered from an ED as an insult please?
These people always chime back with 'get a hobby'. When im not working, studying and parenting, this is my hobby. duck off.
I have loads of hobbies, btw, Person with Blog. This is one of them 
Typical, I should have known it was too good to be true! Extremely connected is fine when you have actual talent, Mom couldn’t get much more privileged after all. Ripping off recipes, not so much.
Edited to add: I don’t think her having an eating disorder is relevant, she doesn’t talk about food in a problematic way in her books. She wouldn’t be the only chef out there to have had difficulties around food, and surely showing recovery is possible is a good thing?
I reported my post to remove the link to the blog, couldn’t see option to edit it.
maybe this was discussed on previous thread but just noticed this and this isn’t maceration?
[DEADLINE LOOMS/NOT MUCH ATTENTION THE PREVIOUS DAY (Delete as appropriate)]
Jack: I have never known worse pain. I've taken EVERYTHING. WHYYYYYYYY MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.
Squigs: OMG, Jack, have you tried bonjela?
Jack: I just said I've tried EVERYTHING, you credulous little twats. I'm off to A&E, because I don't want to bother the GP.
Publisher: Oh, Jack! That sounds terrible! I think the best thing to do is just to extend your submission date, and take the pressure off you. You take care of yourself, and let us know when you feel up to talking.

That is not how macerated is spelt or what it means.
Why doesn't she get a shop in a supermarket Delhi or something, where she can faff about with olives and capers and present them all in little bowls. Minimal work as most of it is prepared already I just needs set up. Minimal contact as all she will have to do his give someone X amount of olives and a block of fancy cheese.
Shame that the blogger was so offended right off the bat, looked like an interesting blog to me. Can’t be doing with the rejection sensitivity so I’m Deborah Meaden looking at a ill- researched business investment - I’m out
But she is a literal food expert?
I hate the term ‘Spoonie’, I appreciate the description just not the term. I’m a frigging spoonie amongst other things and I refuse to be defined by the issues I have. I’m surprised Jack hasn’t latched onto the term yet. Watch this space 
Nah. I like the person behind the counter at Waitrose to have washed their hands, thanks. And if I ask for Goat's cheese, I don't expect to be handed a lump of Cathedral City whilst they stamp their feet and say 'Cheese is CHEESE, you fool! It's ALL THE SAME'.
Harley, as you are reading here, nobody harasses Jack, we discuss Jack and the anomalies and lies in her stories. No harassment involved.

Thank you, a disabled, chronically ill, gay man.

I agree, in the same way parents describe children with Aspergers as 'Aspie'. I once had a friend who doesn't have any chronic illness whatsoever say, "I haven't the spoons today," because they were hungoverI hate the term ‘Spoonie’, I appreciate the description just not the term. I’m a frigging spoonie amongst other things and I refuse to be defined by the issues I have. I’m surprised Jack hasn’t latched onto the term yet. Watch this space
Au contraire.
It is good to have an office twit, some lazy know it all fantasist, who makes up transparent tit about other colleagues and brown noses all the managers, and who pretends expertise, say on excel, then it turns out they can't even apply a simple bleeping filter. Especially if someone has said the twit could train you on excel, and you have to tell, that you think you might just about manage.
It gives other colleagues something to bond about. It is like a team building exercise.
Yup, I can see Jack in a My little Office set up, tongue sticking out in concentration as she does some important colouring in.Really wasn’t joking! But clearly not thinking too hard about people who might have to interact with her.
I just wonder if her current life brings out all the worst points in her (the need for attention, because she’s having no real human interaction etc), and whether actually having to live in the real world would calm her the duck down.
But a murder board research job, or something? A little desk in the corner?
Clearly, I’m in an army of one here
Haha hard agree
this thread has really lifted my spirits over lockdown, much needed light relief
I am BUSY today but I wanted to pop in to mark an important anniversary:
Today we celebrate a full 3 months since Jack Monroe posted an update on her Patreon page.
Here's to many more months of money for nothing!

And The Guardian published it - or was it live?
autistic....and never got the "spoons" thing. Makes no sense to me whatsoever as an analogy.
What I do say is that I am exhausted...when I am as that makes sense.
