"I need a break from social media... " For years it was the most overheard phrase in Ben Wilson's existence, from office to pub, toddler group to football match. So, to mark a milestone birthday, he decided to take one. A full year: Glastonbury without Instagram, Euro 2020 without Twitter, fatherhood without Facebook. The rules seemed simple - until real-world events turned them upside down............... From mental-health woes to single-parenting highs, via heartbreak, hope, half-marathon days, and sleepless nights, this is the raw, hilarious, and life-changing tale of a blue-tick addict's 12-month trek through the social media wilderness............... Ben Wilson is a journalist and former editor of Official PlayStation Magazine and a number of websites. He was born in South London and now lives near Bath with his family, juggling the responsibilities of being a full-time dad with freelance writing commitments. His work has featured in The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Independent, and many more. This is his first book.
