As a person equally dedicated to writing and the housing sector, I love these stories. It's so weird to have your lives intertwined with people, you share this mad intimacy with people when oftentimes you don't even know their names. When I was younger I had the police knock on my door to tell me my downstairs neighbour died (he'd been there for weeks, nobody knew), I've had to stop police (I am noticing a theme here) arresting my next door neighbour for breaking into his own flat when he got out of prison because the landlord had changed the locks (his "friends" had broken in and used it as a trap house whilst he was away). These are significant moments in people's lives and I genuinely have no idea who they actually were. Living in a block of flats is like a mad social experiment and it only takes one person (your jobsworth....) to sew discord.
ALSO VERY EXCITED FOR BOOK NUMBER THREE. You are prolific at this stage. Any hints about the story will be gratefully received - I can't wait to read it!
Yes! You get it! It’s like you’re playing a supporting character in these crazy moments and then everyone just walks away, never to speak again! Life is so strange that way!
And as for Book 3… I’ll just say all these podcasts and shows about cults and con-people is functioning as research 😂

My (hopefully educated) guess is that the final story is the half-true one.
🤭🤭🤭 what gave it away?
It read a little bit more like fiction than the other two. And the ending felt a little too neat for real life.
