6/8/2023 0 Comments No shame anne cassidyI let people down repeatedly our family holiday plans were once again scuppered all thanks to me, friends' parties and book events in the city had to be missed and I couldn't even send anything their way to apologise or send belated congrats as I was a) ill, and b) piss poor (still am the latter, tbh), my writing powers dwindled for a while and that no doubt disappointed the lovely literary agents contacting me.īut then, in amongst the shitty stormy nonsense, there were good times. I was then on-and-off ill, in and out of hospital beds and the operating theatres losing bits of my insides, a dozen kilos and what little mental health I'd managed to hold on to for the couple of years preceding this one. I found myself abruptly out of work in January - thank goodness, that job was killing my creativity - and after picking myself up and dusting myself off, getting into the interning scene at one of my favourite publishers in London.I fell ill. For me, 2017 was a bit of a shit storm at times.
