Only Briggs book I had as a child was The Tin Pot Foreign General and the Old Iron Woman. Pretty certain my parents thought it was just another silly comic …

“We’re meant to use gender neutral language, but then we’re also meant to remember people’s pronouns and use them. Which is it?"
Feel confused by #LGBTQ+ inclusive language?
My article explains the principles & gives tons of practical resources too. 😊

I’ve just had my best ever month freelancing, but I’m still really struggling with imposter syndrome at the moment.
Any tips on combatting the blues? It’s got to the point that I’m actually annoying myself with my moping!

A young never-do-well wakes up with a pounding headache and a dead guy in bed next to him. How did he get there? Why is he dead? What now? Hilarity ensues as he attempts to dispose of the body and elude the hapless criminals who want to shut him up.

Welp, this is going to be a hard act to follow.
But I'm back next week for an open mic #ContentClubUK sesh
Got burning questions about content / copy / freelancing / creativity / whether pineapple is acceptable on savoury foods (the answer is always no)?
Hit me up!
… And they all lived happily ever after.
That closes the book on another instalment of #ContentClubUK. Thanks for following along page-turners.
Don't miss next week, when the man, the myth, the legend @Andre_Spiteri will be at the helm of the good ship CCUK.

A3. I started writing a book of non-fiction essays during the pandemic, about my relationship with words and books. And, learning to cycle at 30. It's untitled as yet.
OR, I'd continue my M.Phil research into women's journalism in the 1890s #ContentClubUK

A3: The one I'm currently wrestling with (and hope will come good one day) is called Arbiter and is about a fantasy world where absolute truth can be ascertained for a price. Ft a blind protagonist battling corruption and imposter syndrome. #ContentClubUK
