Description
Mistakes, Mayhem, and Massive Twattery - Welcome to The Twat Files
'Charming and funny. A good reminder that nobody's perfect - and why would you want to be anyway?' Independent
'Great fun and highly-entertaining' The Times
----
When I was younger I wanted to be an interesting, sophisticated, semi-heroic, multi-layered person. But being an actual twat is much more the real me.
In The Twat Files I will tell you about all the times I've been a total and utter twat. The moments where I've misunderstood stuff and messed up. In my life these have been key because mistakes tell us about ourselves and others. They are hilarious and expose our flaws. They are gloriously human.
My hope is that these stories remind you of just what a massive twat you also are . . .
