I’m running the London Marathon this April 🏃
Was lucky enough to get a ballot place but will be raising money for the incredible LGBTQ+ homelessness charity @aktcharity (fundraising link in bio) so please, give me your money 💰
Haven’t run since struggling through the 2022 marathon and have been humbled multiple times so far in training - but I’m sure I’ll be telling you all about that in the coming weeks.
Very proud/humbled/stoked that I’ve been able to talk to the inspirational force of nature that is @yelyahwilliams a few times over the past 16 months as she goes independent for the first time in her career.
A wickedly funny person who gives a shit about everything she does - and I think you can hear that across #edaabp. Very happy with how all three features have turned out, and they’re all available to read now! (Links in bio)
And yes, Elton’s on the guestlist for the tour next year.

Feel very lucky to have written a cover feature for the 1st and 100th issues of Dork. For my money, the coolest physical music mag around.
Spoken to some of my favourite bands, met some of my best friends and had the word ‘dork’ written alongside my name more times than I can remember over the past nine years.
Just filed the copy for 101’s cover, so here’s to many more.
Ten years ago I saw @twentyonepilots play a tiny gig at the Boston Music Rooms and fell in love. ‘Blurryface’ came out a few days later and plenty of others also fell in love.
Very happy to have spoken to the band for this feature about that album, its legacy and its massive influence on the scene.
Thanks to @em.grnr and @noahfinnce for chatting with me about all things TØP. link in bio

I INTERVIEWED PARAMORE!!!
I still remember watching @paramore opening the main stage at my first ever Reading Festival in 2007, and I’ve been hooked ever since. They’re such a joyful, inspiring force and I really do feel like I’ve grown up with them. I’ve always loved writing about them, so this was a real bucket list moment.
@yelyahwilliams spoke about owning the band’s legacy, touring stadiums with Taylor Swift and what’s next for the newly independent group. I feel very privileged to be able to tell this story in a massive @readdork cover feature - which is now available to read online.
I ALSO spoke to @laurenevemayberry , @bartees_strange and @scowl40831 ’s @8leggedbaby about just what makes Paramore such a special band, which was a whole lot of fun.
Thanks to @meghelsel for organising and @stephenackroyd & Viki for letting me write 5000-odd words.
