Part of my work with MediaStrong is making the public understand the challenges that journalists can face. One way I did this was through a TedTalk in Belfast. I did this while still wrestling with PTSD, my heart pounding and hands shaking. I hope you will take a look youtu.be/ERIGYC0WzXg

Journalists often put up emotional barriers to protect themselves from the events and incidents they cover. It can help and hinder in equal measure #Journalism #MentalHealth

Great to see my friend, colleague and @mediastrong.bsky.social founder @leonaoneill.bsky.social has arrived. I can’t recommend her incredible book highly enough. It includes honest and raw accounts of the toll journalism can take on our mental health from some of the best names in the industry.

Umm, so is there a magic way to follow tons of people at once on here, or do you have to go on each profile and follow individually. If so, I’ll see you in a few weeks! So lovely to connect with so many though! This place is nice

It feels like X has died a death. And as is the Irish way, we can all gather around for the wake, drink tea and talk about the good times, the mad times, the WTF times while mourning. So with that in mind, bring me your maddest Twitter/X moments.

I think we need more zines in the world! Now more than ever. Wondering if I can make some templates for those who might need help with designing... Anything to help others tap into that rebellious spirit 🤘

It’ll take me a while to build up an audience here I’m sure. But if you’re a book lover, reader or writer, I’d love to connect. I write supernatural fiction. My latest book, Perdition Street, is out now worldwide. Second book - a witch themed one - is with my agent. I’m also a journalist, academic

Hey, Bluesky community. I’m new here. I’ve come over from the Hellsite where I had worked really hard to build up almost 30k followers over the years. I’m a supernatural author (latest book Perdition Street out now) I’d love to meet other book people, book lovers, book writers. Are you here?
