Sex Diary
Advice
I get asked to plug all kinds of shit on this blog. Occasionally I might mention something if I feel readers would enjoy it, but generally I take a brief look at what’s being sent my way and ignore it.
But I’ve just been asked to plug something that has really got my blood boiling. It’s a sex-advice piece, supposedly written by a woman and geared towards men, and is offensive in so many ways I

Digg
For someone whose personal life is gossiped about on Valleywag most weeks, he is a surprisingly down to earth bloke. Hope you liked the tea, Kevin.

Webbys
Later on today, I will be live-blogging, in a posh frock n’ all, the Webby Awards ceremony –a.k.a. the “Internet ‘Oscars’”– er, live from the Cipriani ballroom in Wall Street, New York City.
From what I understand, there is little or no WiFi within the venue itself –not at all ironic for an event celebrating Internet achievement of course– so I’ll be pulling out all the stops (and resorting to

Parents
Recently, someone asked me a pointed question about my parents. Had they read my book? No, was my short answer, but yes, they have read some of my blog.
Back when I was forced to divulge my authorship of the blog to my parents, everyone I knew, it seemed at that point, was clicking here to have a gander. But when I confessed all to my parents they had promised me they wouldn’t look at the blog;

Oil
This video (which I've mentioned before) is two years old now, but it begs another view, especially considering the latest news on global oil prices and the increase in petroleum costs. If anyone's ever wondered what "peak oil" is, or indeed how and why oil pricing is such a political issue –and I'm not talking about a bunch of lorry drivers moaning about fuel duty; I'm referring to why certain

I thought it might be fun to try live-streaming some video clips to explore what goes on behind the scenes at my photoshoot today; I'm off there shortly. Follow me on Twitter for updates, or bookmark my Qik page to watch the clips live as they happen.

Exposed
Before any more people ask me if I’ve seen it, yes, I have read ex-Gawker blogger Emily Gould’s piece in the New York Times about the impact blogging had on her life. And yes, I did relate, somewhat.
I’ve been quoted in response to the NYT article as saying, ‘There still seems a long way to go before people grasp how revealing so much personal detail about themselves can have a permanent impact’

Gosh, there's so many topics I currently want to write about and I have at least six unfinished posts on my laptop, but I don't have the time to blog properly at the moment, sadly. I've just finished a big feature (more on that, soon), done a pile of interviews, have a photo shoot lined up in a few days, and am off to Ireland next week to do a book reading at a literary festival. Personal life?

Quake
A little while ago whilst in bed with a lovely man, I was informed by him that my orgasms were “incredible”.
“What, because the aftershocks I have can reach 9.5 on the Richter scale?” I joked.
“No,” he replied, “quite a few women have those. I meant your actual orgasms: they're very, um, intense...”
When he made that remark, I thought he was referring to the fact that I ground my teeth

Blogging
In other non-sex news, I just learned that a piece I wrote on blogging, copyright and why newspapers don't have the right to steal bloggers' content for free, is over here today. If you're a blogger, you should know that you own all creative rights to your writing, regardless of it being published on the internet, and that anyone using your work without your permission is breaching copyright.

Mayor
Right-winger Boris Johnson has been voted in as the new mayor of London.
I'd crack a joke about how I'm planning on leaving the country (which I am) but I'm so depressed about this news, I could cry. Or hit someone. Hard.
Boris voters, what the fuck were you thinking?
London is FUCKED.

Hungary
“And so if I raise my eyes to the heavens and clasp my hands together in humble servitude, the God of Cock might appear?”
I wish I could read Hungarian: I've no idea what the piece says, although I recall the (excellent) questions asked during the interview. Further captions for the photo are welcomed.

Budapest
I'm currently in Budapest, Hungary. Tomorrow I'll be at the Budapest International Book Festival, talking on a panel, "No means no" alongside the director of Hungarian Amnesty International and the editor of Hungarian Cosmopolitan magazine; the topic of our discussion will be rape.
I've written about this subject previously and believe me when I say, it was incredibly difficult for me to

For those that don't know, or who haven't read all of this blog's archives (I can't blame you for that, much of it is dull as fuck), the title "Girl with a one-track mind" was always supposed to be mildly ironic. As in, yes, I'm a woman who always thinks about sex, but, by god I obsess about other things in a singularly-tracked way too. So my nerdy (and dull, to most of my friends) knowledge of

Churnalism
Bloggers, have you ever seen something you've posted on your blog, copied and pasted in a publication with no credit for the source –eg. you– given?
Readers, have you ever read an article in a newspaper and got the feeling you've read the exact same story somewhere else, perhaps even word-for-word?
Journalists, have you ever been sent blurb from PRs and felt pressured to report it as "news"?

My mum, calling out from her office: “Guess what? Supposedly I can get a bigger penis.”
Me, Twittering away in the next room: “Oh really?”
My mum: “Yes. There are these special pills, you see, and it's promised that my penis will grow larger if I take them.”
Me: “That's amazing!”
My mum: “Shall I buy some then?”
Me: “Definitely: it sounds like an unmissable opportunity.”
My mum: “Do you

Abstain
“If you could just lift your bottom up a bit, that would be great,” he coaxed.
I flexed my stomach muscles the best I could and raised my hips off the bed; an additional cushion was carefully slotted in underneath my arse.
“Comfortable?” he asked, and I nodded. “Now, please slide your legs apart.”
“Um, I still have underwear on,” I apologised.
“Don’t worry, that’s fine. Just open your legs

Appearing on Sky News again earlier this week made me hark back to my days working on movies. Whilst live news is about as far removed from multi-million dollar feature films as you can get, being amongst broadcasting folk once more brought back some memories: it wasn’t, after all, that long ago that I had a career in the film industry.
I remember one of the movies I worked on had a night-shoot
