It was an honour to share space on Countryfile with the fabulous @DwayneFields this evening. Please support his work - the torrent of abuse under this tweet is astoundingly sickening. I couldn’t go on reading - we need to call this out at every opportunity!

These were two of the first reviews of my memoir that i read. The relief. The happiness. Thank you @leafarbuthnot and @_RichardBenson
'A superb memoir' @thesundaytimes

'Riveting and bleakly funny memoir' @ObserverUK

In When I had a Little Sister, @cath_simpson13 tells a story of sisterhood and sacrifice, of grief and reclamation. A bold and touchingly candid look at mental illness.

Paperback out now.

Hi @simoncgrant, sorry to contact you Twitter like this, but I was hoping to get in touch w/r/t a story I'm working on for Esquire magazine, as I'd like to ask if you might be willing to be interviewed? Thanks and best wishes, Richard
