Shameful and painful tales from a serious social anxiety sufferer, served with a bit of psychoanalysis salad on the side.

You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view — until you climb into his skin and walk around in it.

Life is infinitely stranger than anything which the mind of man could invent. We would not dare to conceive the things which are really mere commonplaces of existence. #books #iamreading #iamwriting #writingcommunity

So endeth this chronicle. It being strictly a history of a boy, it must stop here; the story could not go much further without becoming the history of a man.

I hope no one who reads this book has been quite as miserable [...] but if you've been up all night and cried till you have no more tears left in you - you will know that there comes in the end a sort of quietness. You feel as if nothing is ever going to happen again. #books

You know, that might be the answer - to act boastfully about something we ought to be ashamed of. That's a trick that never seems to fail. #GetWriting #GetReading #Iamreading #WritingCommunity

But we must come to realise that every word is perfect, including those we scratch out. As my pen moves across this page the whole world writes. All of human history combines at this mere moment now to produce in the flow of this hand a single dot... #WorldBookDay

I left school with 1 GCSE! I felt depressed & worthless.Then one day 11 years ago, I had a go at writing. Books have given my life purpose and inspiration. Books can make dreams come true and are truly magical #WorldBookDay

I was within and without, simultaneously enchanted and repelled by the inexhaustible variety of life.

COVID-19 has impacted millions of children's literacy, but recent studies have shown that watching TV with subtitles on can double the chances of children becoming proficient readers, and it's completely free! https://t.co/Id5eAV2vFu #edutwitter #TurnOnTheSubtitles

Friendship- my definition- is built on two things. Respect and trust. Both elements have to be there. And it has to be mutual. You can have respect for someone, but if you don't have trust, the friendship will crumble. #WritingCommunity

The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of a mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.

No sympathy for the devil; keep that in mind. Buy the ticket, take the ride...and if it occasionally gets a little heavier than what you had in mind, well...maybe chalk it up to forced consciousness expansion: Tune in, freak out, get beaten.

Writing a novel is a terrible experience, during which the hair often falls out and the teeth decay. I'm always irritated by people who imply that writing fiction is an escape from reality. It is a plunge into reality and it's very shocking to the system.
