The @England match last night shows why I say never leave early. 0-0 at half time, then 5 goals & a red card! My @brightonargus article today discusses exactly this - fans miss magic moments by ducking out early. The beautiful game's greatest gift? You never know what's coming.

#Writers, you know the feeling: "I hate writing, I love having written" – Dorothy Parker Don't get me wrong - #writing is great, but some days the words flow like treacle. Then you write 'The End', look back at what you've created & it's all worth it. Magic! ✨ #ILovetoWriteDay


Mark Twain once said, "I apologize for such a long letter - I didn't have time to write a short one." #ShortStories are the same – plot twists & gripping characters in a few thousand words. #DestinedToDie is coming soon, exclusive to my newsletter subscribers. Sign-up🔗in bio!

Well said @CallumMcSorley ‘Celeb’ so-called authors, you might not be bothered to write your own books, but for goodness sakes take the time to at least read what your ghost writer has penned in your name.

Jamie Oliver having to read his own book now so he knows what he's apologising for. Tough times.



As the Divisional Commander of Brighton and Hove Police, I used to stand in dress uniform on #RemembranceSunday feeling like an imposter. Here's why that changed, and what it taught me about who we really are as a society.
