The kickstarter. That was truly an omnishambles, wasn’t it?
Snark on the highest scale at people who enquired where their book might be.

Did you want her to stop BREATHING?
It’s like her Patreon ‘rewards’ - when they didn’t show and people started moaning, she made a big thing about not complaining cos she was doing it all on her own and then shifted blame to her supporters, asking them to check their postal address because that was normally the reason why things didn’t get received! Yeah Jack, ALL those people who didn’t get their rewards has put their address in wrong
Charlatan.
...and tried to shove Caroline-of-the-hands under the bus too - was she drafted in to help posting?

Didn't she blame the post office at one point as well? Said they didn't want her taking so much there, or something
She used to send us emails that pretty much said this
Jay Rayner was on SKL with SMOTFA this morning
I'm not watching it because listening to her voice makes my flesh crawl.
However, iirc this is the one where she goes on about her epipen?
I can't remember if it was this one or a different one where she said she was stressed and worried she'd need her epipen and that the epipen was in another location?
1. Stress doesn't cause anaphylaxis (which is what you need an epipen for) she claims she was given the epipen because of an allergy to tomatoes. However she regularly has said she's cooked/prepared/eaten tomatoes. If you had a deathly allergy you wouldn't go anywhere near them and certainly wouldn't be chopping them up let alone eating them.
2. If you have an epipen you wouldn't let it leave your sight. I have asthma and always have an inhaler on me. At work I have to keep my bag in a locker, however I always have my inhaler in my pocket. The thought of it being nowhere near me is frightening.
3. My phone now lets me write 'epipen ' without auto
kicking inThat makes sense. I'm a keen follower of all things space and we're not due to land on Mars until the 2030s. Obviously Jack is on the advanced crew and not due to get the school run done until she's done the slingshot orbit back into Earth's atmosphere.
Her posts and emails all viewed from the safety of hindsight were something else. The constant excuses, the pass-agg, the many ouchies and bad mentals, the immense financial and physical costs to herself. But she sold it to a publisher and it came out as a professionally printed colour book long before anyone got their B&W photocopied folio in the post. Which if you didn’t get, by the way, it was your own fault for not updating your address. Even if it had t changed. Or something.Didn't she blame the post office at one point as well? Said they didn't want her taking so much there, or something
And even though the original cost included p&p she demanded more before she would send
Have a look, if you haven’t before…

aw, that was nice of her to employ people above the living wage.
