A Sexy Playlist – part 2
Who doesn’t want a 10-hour+ playlist to seduce, smooch and shag to? I’ve got you covered. You can find part 1 of my (unordered) sexy playlist here.

The Joy of Small Things
Bookish readers will know that last month, Arundhati Roy (author of The God of Small Things) published her first memoir, and the paperback of Nigel Slater’s A Thousand Feasts was released.

The Rise and Fall of Dating Apps
It’s Friday afternoon and I’m messaging a guy I’ve been chatting with for a while. We haven’t met but he’s obsessed with me being a sex writer. Sometimes, our conversation feels like death by questions, but when other conversations are dragging, I can rely on having a message from this guy. As I’m typing my…
Is Feeld’s “A Fucking Magazine” Worth It?
Our favourite online dating app has switched things up again. However, instead of launching a new feature or adjusting its premise (hello, Bumble), the creators of Feeld have published a print magazine.
