Today in weird things that happen to you when you write in newspapers: every now and then (usually after Ive been on some form of broadcast media) I get an email from a woman called Katie who tells me shes disappointed that Ive been asked to speak on the subject at hand instead of her. She feels Im not academic / intellectual enough for a public platform (and of course she is). Today she emailed me with the revelation that some people cant afford the time off work and expense to go to a political party conference, which of course I had never realised before. She always signs her emails Katie [surname], PhD candidate in Social Justice. Anyway today I discovered she doesnt contact any other writers. Just me. I dont feel particularly threatened or downhearted. Its just very bizarre.
