Sooz's Diaries

i am glued ...

I just hope that Sooz is! Sorry Sooz, bad joke.

These are very special diaries. They are the most honest diaries I've ever read; even the self-delusion, like that of Pepys, is honest. So real and honest are these diaries that I cannot always read them. I cannot read, for example, about the stapling operation or the publishing nightmares. But there are extraordinary passages in these diaries. I particularly loved the stuff about the reptiles (I believe that Sooz writes at her richest when describing objectively). There would definitely be two or three Sooz diary excerpts in my abc top twenty.

well it's an astonishing thing to write so openly about such personal things ... i am still horror struck by some of the things i have read in sooz's diaries in the past (the rug munching for one ... and the temper tantrum hair cutting)... i do wonder at my own motivations for being so agog and waiting in such anticipation for them ... they are the only thing for ages and AGES that have me clicking the last hundred just to see if she has done a new one ... the hospital stuff was an absolute nightmare ... i often want to rush round to sooz's house and force her to write another entry ... this maybe isnt good...

She had nookie in one her recent journals. Am i allowed to say that? I read them on Uka, they blow me away every time so brave ,candid and honest. I think many have already said they'd make a fantastic book, i agree.

If Sooz wanted these made into a book, maybe one way of going about it would be to do a blog, and then try to update, maybe in shorter sections, every day. A good blog can build up a massive audience, and then people start to take note. Blogs are the coming thing, it seems; I couldn't keep up the effort, myself, but something tells me that Sooz could.

Just read a few episodes... Compelling reading. Sooz, you are a scary person.

I totally agree agree !!! - Sooz's diaries leave absolutely nil to the imagination - she tells it just as it she experiences it - blood, guts an all. I find that kind of openess awesome and very humbling particularly as there's a secretive slice to moi (Scorpio rising!!!). I'm sure it's therapeutic as well - externalising stuff and having a dialogue with it. Oh BUT,......I tried to browse via author to read Sooz's latest up loads but I can't seem to find that option. Any ideas - am I having a blind spot??????

Thanks Tony, thanks everyone. I'm, embarrassed now. I made a decision on day one (over two years ago) that if I was going to post a diary, then it had to be unaffected by the fact that other people were reading it. Otherwise there is no point. If I held things back that I wanted to say because I was going to post it online, then it would be cheating myself. I decided when I started it that I was going to do it REAL without any pretence or trying to make myself come across as better then I am. Sometimes I read them back, when it's too late, and blush to the roots of my toenails. I've been slated for airing my dirty laundry in public. To those people who I've offended I'd just like to say ...so don't bloody read it then! When it's going to be very personal or traumatic I always put a warning at the top. I've been accused of being disloyal to my friends and family and of being indiscrete. I've also been called a liar but I can back up most things I've posted. I could probably have been sued many times over if anyone named had a mind to. On the flip side. I've had tremendous support and friendship through some bad times, particularly when I lost my twins two years ago. It was my diary and the people reading it (who I've come to think of as part of my diary) that got me through it. I'd like to think that maybe it will help people in the future for instance someone contemplating the same op, might find some of my experiences useful, but mostly it stops me going do-lally and do-lallydom is never far away. Don't know about a book, I think it would be pretty boring. Maybe one day when life is good and it can have a happy ending. The day I cut off all my hair was almost as traumatic as the day I went into hospital. I'm still having nightmares and therapy and regular consultaions with Ricardo from The Salon. :-) I'm afraid the next installment is another nailbiter as well. Well, for me anyway not for you lot. I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to write it or not. It doesn't show me in a good light and that bothers me. But, if the Osbornes can do it, so can I. Thanks all.

If you go here: You will find five sets of Sooz's diaries at the end of the page. If you can read right through them then you will discover the heart and soul of a unique and extraordinary person but I warn you, it will be a rough and rocky ride.

go on sooz ...

thx for link!

I have been one of Sooz's greatest fans from day one - (how long ago was it, love?) - and I just know that she is going to be a big star one day. Possibly the best writer on ABCtales, and that's sayig something!

It's been a looooong time mate. It's been a long time since we got together too. I never made it to London at all last year. I was too busy getting fatter and being miserable oh, and cutting all my hair off in temper. I am so going to get there at least once this year. And just think, this time I'll only have two tits. I brought an extra one last time. He sat opposite me. If I'd known then that he already had a girlfriend I could have invited her too! I can't wait for the next one, or maybe the one after that, but sometime this year. Thanks you.

You can't wait for the next tit? Well, nothing wrong with tits, I suppose. By the way, mate, I "love" (if that's the right word) the part about cutting your hair off, and I particularly enjoyed your comments to yourself afterwards that went something like, "Well, that wasn't very clever, was it?" But I have a question. Did you sell your hair? Because it would have been worth a fortune.

I know, Mary said they pay ridiculous prices for it. I didn't know that did I? No, it went in the bin after sitting like a dead thing on the dining room table for three days.
