I'd be hard-pressed to think of anybody who's made me laugh, who's funny, but who's also relentlessly positive.

I've been writing since I was very young, even before I was a teenager. As far as I'm concerned, I am a writer - whether my writing's spoken or written in a blog, paper, book or printed on the side of a submarine.

Men don't know anything! Men don't know when their lives became so entirely awful, when everyone else turned into such a tosser!
