Here’s that shop job she had in Autumn 2012 (this is where the hats from @MistyWindows post came from) and “is a stone’s throw from her front door”.
She started it September 12th (these links don’t work on this version of the archive)

And she’s already packed it in to go freelance by the end of October/early November.

So, I’m officially in Week Three of self-employed single mummy status. Week three? Where has that time gone? Well so far it’s gone on two exhausting but successful preview days at the Work Of Art G...web.archive.org
ALL her financial issues EVER have been completely self-inflicted.
Dear God what an insufferably pompous old fogey with an overinflated sense of selfI was just mithering through the Wiki and found a new (to me) version of her early blog and well,
In mid 2012 she already had a category PRESS AND FAME mostly consisting of her insufferable old prick letters to “the newspaper” (including the I WISH TO PUNCH THE NEWSPAPER STAND/PAINTING THE CIVIC one)
Also, in SONGS AND POETRY, for the love of the Muses, please please, someone here have a working link to these twoView attachment 2473625 qView attachment 2473626 qView attachment 2473627 qView attachment 2473628 qPosts about Press and Fame on A Girl Called Jack

THANK YOU ❤"Ghost Train" is seemingly lost to the ages but here's "Rolling Stone":
THANK YOU ❤
bleeping hell. It’s just peripatetically cacophonously mortifying that this crap was from a 24 year old in desperate pursuit of fame. Like she’d be softly, gently scooped up to become the new one-woman Elton/Bernie (or more to Jack’s preference, Andrew Lloyd Webber/Tim Rice and Elaine Paige)
Also, is guest “mama”? I think I’m too befuddled by all the repetition and why she’s “packing up her empties” to sit in the pub with a bottle (and a pen) to have the luxury of comprehending.
It does flow slightly better than "mamapapa was a rolling stone"

Briliant!The "press and fame" roughly equivalent to appearing in a local paper pointing at a pothole.
I don’t know how or why my brain processed it like this, but I read that as Kim Jon-Un and I was staring at the photos utterly baffledHas anyone seen the photos of Kim K's new photoshoot? Her haircut is giving me Guest vibes I can't think of the specific photo but tell me you don't see it...

What you've done there is write one verse that neither rhymes or scans then copy paste a tired old blues trope 14 times.
Nooooo way has that been an entire year? Aha amazing. I think after some mithering and lurking and doubting her *everything* that was the moment I had to join inI am unlurking to remind people of this. Happy Spud-Gate!
