Other journalists should take notes on reporting from Maxim Kelly.

Wrote about being a bit of a hoarder and how grief makes that complicated. We sort of cleared up my Dad's room recently, 17 years after he died. I wrote in defence of why it's okay that it took so long. Don't let people tell you how to grieve ✌️

I cleared out my dad's study after 17 years — I needed that room because I didn’t have him
It took Megan Roantree 17 years to clear out her late father’s room. As she sifts through his possessions, she explains why she wouldn’t have it any other way

I'm fascinated by Molly Mae & her mass appeal. When we think of the IT girls gone by, they were bold, messy, party girls. Now, they're more likely to be in favour of a stripped back social life. I loved exploring this for @irishexaminer.bsky.social

I'm extremely grateful to have 3 features out this weekend that I absolutely loved writing. I started freelancing just under a year ago and I'm so grateful for every editor and publications who like my ideas enough for me to start typing ❤️❤️

👰📢 Wedding Content Creators

Did you have one? Do you work as one? I'm looking to chat to people about mobile-first wedding content for a feature #journorequest

Gonna try some #Journorequest over here if you'll humour me.

I'm looking for people to talk to me about three very different topics for 3 different features:

1. Their grá for Claddagh rings
2. If and why you love Molly Mae
3. If you had/want or work as a wedding content creator

Lovesick aka my fave comfort show is leaving Netflix at the end of the month - I am devo. I think it's the perfect show.

What are some similar shows that might help fill the void?
