I
once said it would be really cool to be on the same level of
celebrity as the major UK YouTubers, if only so I could be on a late
train home, slightly tipsy following a book event most likely, and
just throw a tweet out there saying ‘ask me anything!’ followed
by a home-made hashtag – and immediately get 100+ replies from fans
and followers asking me silly, quirky and insightful things.
Having
said that, I imagine if I had that level of fame it would stress me
out no end on social media. I have trouble being careful even these
days...
Well,
last night I thought I’d experiment with a Q+A post again, so I
threw a tweet out…
QUICK! ASK ME ANYTHING!?— Grace Latter (@_gracelatter) April 14, 2018
What’s given you the most joy in the last few days?— Geekcliché (90% cocoa solids) (@GeekCliche) April 15, 2018
In the past few days, I've been trying (and failing) to squeeze in writing and/or chill time. It's been hard, as I've been here there and everywhere lately, not to mention my brain's been extra busy...
What's your favourite own personal acting performance ever? (You don't have to be biased and say something you were in with Me 😂)— Liam Cooper (@LeamCoopah) April 14, 2018
Oh my darl, I would obviously have to say the scratch production of 'Much Ado' with you and the rest of our Nic Cage-loving gang. I had the best time being a 1920s New York gangster Hero. If I had to pick another performance, though, it would have to be 'Punk Rock' by Simon Stephens in my first year at sixth form. I loved being a character completely different to me - a plastic, Queen Bee bitch in an unhappy relationship with the school bully, yearning to escape the Northern town she'd grown up in. (okay, maybe the last thing rang a little too true with me...)
This is such a sweet question, thank you. I do miss my counsellor and the weekly sessions, but I have confidence that I'll be okay for some time now.
What are you most excited about/looking fwd to? 😊— Dimitri Bitsakaki (@lastpieceofcake) April 14, 2018
I have a really exciting week ahead, actually! It includes The Brain Tumour Charity's Celebrating You awards ceremony on Thursday, a couple of fun photographic adventures and a fabulous musical experience, too. And in the long run, I'm excited about having reconstruction surgery and finally getting my life un-paused.
Do all the research, check your data levels on your phone, pack snacks, get lots of sleep and take your time with everything. Don't pressure yourself. And for more advice, please go to Louise Jones, the professional adventure-haver and travel Instagrammer.
HOW DO YOU FLIRT WITH PEOPLE GRACE I CANT FLORT WITH GALS HELP— Ellen Jones (@ellen__jones) April 14, 2018
I had to fake-flirt with a friend recently to get a somewhat frightening middle-aged lady off his back at the pub; I just leaned in a little too far and touched his arm gently, I giggled and shared a cutesy anecdote about seeing a funny card in a shop and thinking of him...it didn't require much thought, tbh. I just got noticeably closer to my friend and spoke a little more delicately?! If it's a stranger, though, I'd say just keep chatting - as long as the other person wants to, that is. Smile a lot - but not like a 1000 watt grin, just a calm and contented smile. That's all I got! But Ellen, you can just be you imo. You're fab.
Thank you everyone who asked me something! Keep an eye out for the Q&A blog post coming later this week!— Grace Latter (@_gracelatter) April 15, 2018

So
while writing this, I realised that I'd attempted a
Q+A post almost exactly 1 year ago...maybe I should make it an
annual thing?! We'll see.
Thanks
for the Qs, my lovely friends. Feel
free to comment with any more questions, or tweet
me,
as these lovely askers did!
