I think you are probably correct, but her writing is so bad and all over the place, it's difficult to actually understand what she is saying. I'm still puzzling over the publisher who turned her down, but want her to come to their office, because they like her voice...ehh what???As I understood it from the column, the suffragette story was her first attempt at a novel and is not the current one (which presumably is The Turtle's Head.) I guess another obstacle to getting the latter published is that for all intents and purposes it is a fantasy about harming David and "Fructis Woman". Even if David can't afford to take it to court, they have to consider that he'd have grounds to, and therefore that publishing the book is risky
Yes, sometimes the addled and disjointed she writes the column can confuse. My take was the same as yours. She made an attempt at a ‘Suffragette’ novel. The climax possibly being Emily’s ill fated demise under the Kings horse perhaps drawing on her own experience at being ‘trampled’ down by everyone in her life and linking prison hunger strikes to her own eating disorder?? We can ever be thankful it never saw a printing..As I understood it from the column, the suffragette story was her first attempt at a novel and is not the current one (which presumably is The Turtle's Head.)

Also confusing.. did they mean her actual writing style, God forbid! Here’s hoping they listened to the podcast when she was singing..she can’t sing for toffee but it’s marginally better than the writing in ‘The Tortoise’(Turtles Head).I think you are probably correct, but her writing is so bad and all over the place, it's difficult to actually understand what she is saying.

Exact;y this, lets face it, we read it, eyebrows raised, thinking erm...then we hit google, check for a few facts, which are never present in jug ears writing, then we want to see if everyone else agrees with us...clearly they do, and any of the positive Go Liz comments are clearly fake, poor Nic having to work on a Sunday, or else as a piss-take NigeFromDorset, yes the ones that do get through are awesome and totally reflect what we think (Candida Voletrouser) is one example, their comments are gold, but if there are no comments then it is just like reading this crap, with no genuine feedback, wondering how much the DM pay her for this crap...Hello DM I (and many others) could probably write a good column, but I am happy to take criticism, maybe even change my pov or way of thinking, in order to engage with readers, and provide a piece that is actually worth reading, entertaining, thought provoking, god forbid, uplifting even...we really dont want Liz Moans, unless we can have an opinion on it, that challenges her tales of woe and point out that she is the author of her own misery.Risky tactic. Her readership will plummet without a full and free comments section.
It’s self-sabotage in action. First the dreadful and vicious book fails, now she’s hobbling her own column into extinction and the subsequent loss of her rented home is likely to follow.
don't think she was there long enough to have accrued any benefits, she should have had a private pension all these years, paying in a regular sum no matter where she worked, but that would have lessened the spa treatments, designer clothes, teeth steaming and whatever other crap she's wasted money on, but nah, not for old jug ears.Surely she can start to collect her pension from Marie Claire now as she’s over 60? Guess she has to pay off debts
No chance of a decent pension in publishing! I speak from experienceSurely she can start to collect her pension from Marie Claire now as she’s over 60? Guess she has to pay off debts
I would be astonished if she hasn't got a pension pot. It's tax-efficient and another thing she can lie about ad infinitum. I don't know anybody from a background like hers that hasn't got *something* stashed away, besides which, she would have accrued at least 20 years of occupational pension before she went self-employed.don't think she was there long enough to have accrued any benefits, she should have had a private pension all these years, paying in a regular sum no matter where she worked, but that would have lessened the spa treatments, designer clothes, teeth steaming and whatever other crap she's wasted money on, but nah, not for old jug ears.
Ha ha! That’s a nice touch including the Castel Amouroux @ Mediastar? She literally hates confronting what she missed out on through her own hubris and profligate nature. She’s just so thick.By the by and purely by way of conversation, it was always a mystery to me that, after the Somerset debacle, she didn't move abroad. With the money she had, she could have bought a monster pile in France or Spain, hired actual staff, had the facilities for horses, dogs, cats etc. and could have moaned incessantly about the locals (red meat to Mail readers), lied through her teeth without too much risk of being found out! She paid about a million for Lawn House and for half that could have had something like this:

which comes with acres of land! And she works from home! Talk about a missed opportunity. Mind you, say what you like about Jonesey... you can't accuse her of having an imagination!
Hmm..not sure about that, she is not known for thinking things through, though she may well have hidden assets, these will be squandered in the usual way of beauty treatments (lol) expensive clothes, mini breaks, that add nothing to her worth, nor make her look or seem like a better person, then it will be the usual disappointment that , when her magical dreams do not manifest, that it is because no one seems to understand her, no one values her, why Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee???? just go fuck off!I would be astonished if she hasn't got a pension pot.
