#LossLit The breathing exercises work. Among the relief hides wounded pride: You're not so complex Not so special After all.

The moment of horror as you hear the crunch of a snail shell underfoot. A reminder that you are a clomping beast who can do harm. #losslit

#LossLit Dad's dementia: He left the bookies with £250 in his pocket, came home and told us he'd won quarter of a mil on the horses.

He let the last of the audience leave, and sat down. He picked up a discarded popcorn box, and ate the last few unpopped kernels #LossLit
