I don't think they do want to publish it which is why she's trotted out this nonsense.
In her snippy tweets from this morning there was one (can't find it now, sorry!) she said something like 'imagine a man being so angry about 1000 words from a book that hasn't been written yet'. She hasn't started it.
I think she's shown a draft or synopsis to the publisher and been told it is a non starter because it is shit/offensive and there is no market for it. She's had a tantrum, written this gobshite in temper and put it on Twitter to get the arselicking squiggles to say it is amazing and showing the publisher she is amazing and the book is amazing and therefore they have to give her an advance and publish it.
Like a fucking child.
She’s hoping for DKL mark II

Jack's crime thriller series would simply be called Nightmeat and I really think it could take off. I keep singing it along to the tune of Heartbeat though which kinda takes the edge off a bit.
Sounds more like a horror... oh, hang on..

There could be a whole series of reworked Christie titles.
Dumb Witness is begging a rewrite featuring Content as the "dumb Witness"
A witness for the prosecution featuring any nearly Mrs Jack's

The tweet about basically saying whatever she wants even though she gets fired is an admission of making yourself voluntarily unemployed and potentially into poverty.
I’m expecting ‘my mental health is on the floor’ tweets tomorrow. Get the sympathy going.
When is the next monthly inflation announcement? She will want to build up attention to that!

maybe she is thinking of Psmith journalist, creation of P. G Whodehouse, who believed all property was theft so liberating it from it's original owner was an act of communism. It is of course possible the author was taking the piss in the same gentle way as he did with the black shorts who popped up in Jeeves and Wooster saying ridiculous Mosely like things
I LOVE Psmith so much. Practical socialism!

Huge grunk on my hands… so may be very late with this:

Doesn’t she realise that she is telling on herself with this lever arch file nonsense?

What is she doing printing out Hansard and putting it in lever arch files? Does he hole punch the pages? Put in punched pockets??

Whilst the rest of the professional world has computer files, databases and spreadsheets.

I’m so embarrassed for her.
It makes her look poor sort of rustic and old fashioned. She's bonkers

Just catching up so this will land somewhere weird, just in the murder mystery book title section, not a murder title and this has no doubt been suggested in the past but a new cookbook could be called Jack Monroe, Fifty Shades of Grey.brown
FTFY 😇
