Writer, farmer, twit. Expect books, dogs, equality and typos.
The hostility towards #transpeople on @bbcradio4 Women’s Hour is stomach turning. Well done @amnestyuk.bsky.social for staying calm & speaking sense

For all those asking for more books for 12-14s, with 12-14 MCs, and for boys, I wrote this a while ago. It was Carnegie nominated and made into a TV series that won a BAFTA. Please buy it so it can finally earn out its minuscule advance. www.amazon.co.uk/Joe-All-Alon...

I see a woman & a loose dog.
Me: is he friendly?
Her: yes, yes, he’s fine.
Reader, he bit my dog.
Me: You said he was friendly!
Her: you should put your dog on a lead if you’re worried.
the solution to violence? Blame & curtail the victim.
Me: F*ck off.
Ive seen enough of that in the patriarchy.
