“It’s a very raw and traumatic piece of work though”. She’s so bloody frustrating! It is possible to have empathy (because no matter what she says, I don’t believe for a second that her so called poverty was anything like other people’s experiences) and to see the goal of actually making a difference. Nobody has asked or is forcing her to do this. She reads a couple of newspaper articles and a Coroner report and it’s “raw and traumatic” for HER.Be warned squigs. The forecast is Spiky Jack.

Unlike Monroe, I have no words to describe the opening paragraphs she so graciously shared with us this morning. Other than to say, that if anyone actually publishes that overwritten, overwrought, underthought nonsense, I look forward to the reviews.
I don't understand misery lit at the best of times, who wants to read abuse stories like 'A Child called It' for example. It's a bizarre trend. Literary rubbernecking.“It’s a very raw and traumatic piece of work though”. She’s so bloody frustrating!

She revels in mining other people’s stories and then telling the cult members so they can pat her on the head and tell her how brave she is.
And honestly, who’s going to buy this shit? Form an orderly queue folks, get your hands on a copy of a load of floral bollocks as described by a charlatan who uses other people’s terrible experiences to boost her own profile. It’s got top of the Christmas best seller list written all over it.
You said this much better than I could. EXACTLY. The best remedy for despair is action, Jack.“It’s a very raw and traumatic piece of work though”. She’s so bloody frustrating!

I think you must've seen her manuscript already! That'll be exactly itShe’d be such a terrible fiction writer, her protagonist would be a horrible Mary Sue, simultaneously the biggest victim with the most tragic possible backstory and brave and strong and loved by all. The villain would be an evil Tory and everyone else would be bumbling yokels who don’t have the brains and moxie of our pixie and cheer her on from the slide lines as she defeats Lord Snootington.
She’s not telling us anything most people don’t know anyway! We know how tough things are, we see it and hear it from people we know or the local news/media. Nobody expects her to have the answers so I have no idea why she’s writing this in the first place.I don't understand misery lit at the best of times, who wants to read abuse stories like 'A Child called It' for example.

Jackanory needs to bore off.
