Matt Haig doubles down as soon as anyone levels any provocation or criticism at him. I always used to defend him because his books have helped so many but he acts in such infantile ways. Last year I tried calmly explaining to him about Section28 & why lgbtq+ can be wary of tories
& he was being so stroppy on here. Even when being treated so gently.
The literary world HATE discussions of class. It makes them fizz with awkwardness. Because class chats ask of them not to just use inspirational quotes & rake in the coin, but to care about economic differences
In the mental health world there are so many.
Yes - mental illness doesn’t wholly discriminate, but also - IT DOES DISCRIMINATE! Think about circumstances beyond your own, which memoir writers tend to think of last & just bung in their obligatory paragraphs admitting private help

this tweet 👏👏👏 I wrote a bit in my book about how bored I am that almost EVERY SINGLE MENTAL HEALTH MEMOIR I’ve read in the past 10yrs has the ‘obligatory paragraph’ of “thankfully I was lucky enough to get private help, thank god!!!”
& I’m like 🤔 where’s the other book!!!
Authors get aggy with me whenever I speak about this. gimme the “middle class people struggle with MH too!!”
Duh obvs, but the literary world rarely asks itself -why are there so many obligatory paragraphs?
do these frequent admissions of privilege ever feel exhausting/censoring?
hate to feel im plugging, but I wrote the book to be so easy to read & so no one from state school/ non-therapist paying family would feel excluded.
the one thing that links everyone I’ve lost before their time: my dad, friend, uncle, is they were all born into council housing.

6 yrs ago i was hosting the arts stage of a festival & we were due a talk from d*vid icke. id never heard of him. he arrived & i was like 'look at this sweet lil guy with his fam, lemme get u a chair!' he asked me to intro him & his son who was gna sing. i was like "ADORABLE!!!!"
i thought he was maybe like dick strawbridge or somthing.
so on mic i was like 'ladies & gents, boys & girls, we have a lovely talk from former sports broadcaster, so can we have a huge warm round of applause for... the ickes!!"
people thought i was being sarcastic.
i was being *deeeeply earnest*
i went to sit backstage & continue reading grazia which is what i did for author talks cause cba to hear about a book i aint read. 20 mins into this packed-out set a woman started screamin at him & tried to storm the stage. there was 'an atmosphere'

ive never seen drag race so @nicolacoughlan asked me to give it a try. we’ve started on Season 6 and whilst i know we are all being #kind right now, laganja estranja is the worst person I have ever watched on television
the only one I consistently love is trinity k bonet because she has all the confidence of me after I got put down in maths to set 5 despite the fact I knew I could do mental arithmetic better than the masc rich boys whose dad’s were stockbrokers & deff did their homework
i can’t remember something fox’s name so I call her caprice because she looks like caprice
