Curious as to how you submit hand written edits one minute before deadline? Do you catapult them through your publisher's window?

Her profile is far higher now than it was for the last books. Assuming she doesn't implode in a ball of chaos between now and publication, she probably will sell more copies of this one, which means more people trying her recipes. Not financial advice, but might be wise to consider investing in immodium...

There was no last minute book chaos. It was old notebooks hauled out and highlighted for effect.
She has to give the squigs their drama, it’s how she keeps them invested. And investing.

I was thinking the same thing. Every thing she does now seems to be to diminishing returns and for some reason she seems hellbent on burning bridges with industry and meeja.

All the performative nonsense from last night is purely to try and keep the squigs invested and paying attention.

I reckon he was hers, but we all saw what Cooper made of him, so thankfully he has gone somewhere else. (Hopefully.)

She's one of these clowns who thinks all cats should get on just because they are cats. Would I ever get a new cat and introduce them to an existing cat by flinging them in the same room? No. Sometimes that would work and sometimes it doesn't. You get cats who love other cats, tolerate them or plain hate them. She knows nothing about animals, that's clear.

She best be careful in Southwark Cathedral then, they love cats after they adopted a street cat years ago, Doorkins. There's a gargoyle of him, a book and merchandise too. They always have a resident cat now.

I think it's pretty much the same tbh except she has more twitter followers. She was well known when tin can cook and good food for bad days came out. She only gets the followers by being an arse to boot.

Her books are shite anyway. Of any I did buy I wasn't inspired enough to cook a single recipe.
 
Massive apology to @Cack Conroe from the last thread. I should have clarified that it's only Jack's version of autism is not backed up by what she's producing (accuracy being her flex, details etc etc!) I know that autistic people are as different as everyone else as from each other. And I can't choose the focus either - I managed it for that first book because I was obsessed with it, managed to get it published and haven't written a word of anything decent since, which is really bleeping with my head because all I want to do is write more books. Currently all I can focus on is a stupid TV show that I've already watched a hundred times. I'm so sorry it came off so offensive, I tend to blather without thinking and then feel guilty for literal years afterwards. Blaming Jack though!!
