I wrote a book! And I promise you'll love it 🤩
Here's what Philip Pullman says about it: 'This book is lovely - Miranda's observations are as sharp as ever, and in a strange way they seem to sharpen my own.'

Wow, wow, wow! It is SO hard for one book to be noticed above the noise of the gazillion other books out there, and I've just been on Amazon and seen all your amazing reviews!! And if I ever make it to 100, the algorithm will start pushing it too! Thank you so much www.amazon.co.uk/Place-Im-Wha... 😘

A woman walks past me carrying a clear bag. In it are lots of wrapped presents in green, pink and gold paper. The top one is marked 'Miranda'. Yes I am tempted to say, 'You shouldn't have.'

A little boy in a reindeer costume takes a toy up to the till of the shop I'm in and when his mum says, 'How are you gonna pay for that darling?' he says, 'reindeer points'.

Woman in Canary Wharf: I take Christmas very seriously. Make my own mince pies. Tinsel. Wear a reindeer outfit to church. The lot.

A man stands outside a restaurant on Seven Sisters Road. He smokes a cigarette. He wears a Christmas jumper, the large glittery penguin embroidered upon it stretching over his boxing-day belly. Behind him through the restaurant windows, green fairy lights twinkle in the gloom.

Me: My new puppy ate my only valuable record.
My friend: What was it?
Me: John Lennon’s Imagine.
My friend: My dog ate my copy of Crime and Punishment.
Me: Wow. Now I want to ask all the dog owners I know what their dog ate.

Wow! I'm slowly climbing to 7000 followers! But follower count shouldn't matter, you say? I wish that was true for freelance creatives trying to reach an audience, but it really does matter to us to connect. Anyway, thank you to every single one of you, and Happy Christmas, you gorgeous folk 💕

Woman on the train: How was the Christmas party?
Man: Yeah, done that, thank God. Now home to start on the cheese.

I am from the biros are useful if your cassette tape is becoming baggy days.

I do not want Liquid Glass. I just want a phone. Honestly a lot of me still wants it to be attached to a wall and not bother me when I’m out of the house, but hey.

Man in a pub: He did it. All of it. And nobody’s gonna do anything about it.

Two men in Hackney (in broken English).
Man 1: I wish you new happiness.

A man walks through Epping Forest, a baby in a sling on his back. She wears a tiny Santa hat that says, 'Vicky's first Christmas', and a big smile.

Woman in a shopping mall: What do you want for Christmas?
Little boy: I want all the sorry to go away.

An elderly lady on the train hands out two gold-papered Christmas crackers to two suddenly delighted little boys opposite who had just been about to kick off in tiredness, and the smile the mum gives her as a thank you is divine.

It's too late to order one for Christmas Day, but if you want a beautiful gift ready to welcome someone you love into 2026, I promise they'll love this book! Illustrated by the brilliant Luci Power, and set over a year. Buy a copy for yourself too, you won't regret it 😘 Here: tinyurl.com/33z847ut

There are many places to find essential, real, awful news. When I’m sharing online I ask myself: Should I post it? Maybe. Will it make people feel better? Then, yes. Will it make people at the least, not feel worse? Ok sure. Will they feel worse? Then, no. People need a break. I can be that break ❤️

Small child on a pink unicorn scooter with light-up wheels is being towed along the shopping street by her mum and doing the royal parade wave at all the passersby and I can't remember when I've respected anyone more

The owner of this café looks up at the silver-haired woman walking in and says ‘Earl Grey, Bethany?’, and the woman nods as he begins to make it.

A dog in a café barks at a second dog continuously until said second dog and her owner leave, at which point the previously barking dog looks utterly bereft and lies down.
