We did it! I’m crying! I’ve just heard we have got funding again. And this time it is even bigger, better, more intriguing. Oh what a life it is to be sober and doing what you love.

I wrote a piece for The Times which is out today! Obv about Aftershock, my new poetry book and how Evian once put my face on water bottles around the world. Oh, and the crisis. And how it led to *all this*.

My new book has a cover! Out November 2025 with @verve.publisherofpoetry https://www.vervepoetrybookshop.com/product-page/well-done-you-didn-t-die-max-wallis

My next big idea - and a long way off - is Little Shocks (@littleshocksbooks). Small books for big feelings.
A children’s imprint from The Aftershock Review, Little Shocks will publish beautiful, emotionally honest books for children facing difficult subjects: grief, fear, change, illness, difference, family rupture, anger, loneliness and hope.
Clear, kind, imaginative and brave, these are books for the feelings adults often find hardest to explain.
If you’re an illustrator get in touch!

Oh sweet cabbage baby books, you are so smol, so pocketable, so bloody brilliant.
Each box contains 100 copies of a Pocket Aftershock! Surprise cat at the end of the video! Now, @waterstones @waterstonesmcr @poetry_pharmacy_ @poetrybooksociety @ebbandflobookshopchorley that doesn’t take much shelf space does it?

It’s never easy. But it’s worth it. My life now doesn’t feel two years away from before, but more like another life entirely. It’s sort of how I see it. I have a chance to live again. No matter what happens in the world or in our lives we can control whether or not we drink or use. The last two years have seen so many opportunities (or rather, excuses) for me to drink or take drugs. Instead I had to see them as crucibles and opportunities for growth. For anyone hurting I will not drink with you today. To those who know who they are - thank you.
The Instagram Story Viewer is an easy tool that lets you secretly watch and save Instagram stories, videos, photos, or IGTV. With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories. Features of Anonstories Viewer: - Anonymous Browsing: Watch Stories without showing up on the viewer list. - No Account Needed: View public content without signing up for an Instagram account. - Content Download: Save any Stories content directly to your device for offline use. - View Highlights: Access Instagram Highlights, even beyond the 24-hour window. - Repost Monitoring: Track the reposts or engagement levels on Stories for personal profiles. Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
