... Paul Merton phoned Ian Hislop up yesterday to tell him how much he'd enjoyed the Jackoballs page I put together for the last issue.

Your book and your work are genuinely superb but I do wonder whether your desperation for recognition and credit mean you would be better suited to working at a publication which gave you bylines.
I'm one of the team of hacks at Private Eye magazine, where I've worked on and off since 1997. I'm also an editorial lieutenant on Popbitch (not sure what it means: we made up the job titles in the pub). I've written for a number of other newspapers and magazines, been a co-presenter on LBC, a regular newspaper reviewer on Sky News and written a biography of the Victorian businessman and philanthropist William Lever. My first novel, Topped of the Pops, a comedy thriller, was to be published in May 2008, until the publishers went bust. From 1999-2002 I was deputy editor of The Big Issue.
