Thanks so much for the shout out, I would have put money on you having an Inner Monologue! 👏

I can't imagine life without it. 😳

Honestly Sam, your links & recs always land in my inbox at EXACTLY the right time on a Friday when I'm losing the will to continue tapping (dayjob; commercial copywriter - creatively limited, but pays for food!!) - it's my fave (desk-based!) displacement activity - I see it as writerly "research & development" so it feels guilt-free too! Thank you for putting it together - it's a LOT!!

Love the Angela Carter article - I definitely need to adopt the ‘so fucking what?’ attitude when it comes to my writing!

I second the Eve Hewson fangirling! She was so fantastic in “Behind Her Eyes” as well. I cannot wait for “Bad Sisters” to return… meanwhile, glad to know you inhaled CREATION LAKE. I was wondering about that one. Thanks for the excellent recs and links, as always 😃

Season 2 goes a little darker, which I wasn't expecting - reminded me a bit of Catastrophe in that way.
