A TABLOID journalist who writes under a pseudonym has revealed herself – as former Herald defence reporter Susie Boniface.

Fleet Street Fox, as she is better known, writes a blog revealing the secrets of being a Fleet Street hack and has attracted over 50,000 twitter followers in the process.

Susie worked at The Herald over a decade ago and her work included a series of in-depth features on the Royal Navy presence in The Gulf.

She has worked as a journalist for almost 20 years, with the last 10 spent at the Sunday Mirror.

As well as revealing secrets behind the tabloids, she also began the blog as her marriage was ending and wanted to write it as a guidebook for divorce.

Susie is now a freelance journalist working with The People, Sunday Mirror, Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, Guardian, Sun, Daily Star Sunday, BBC, Press Association, the Daily Express, Reveal and Bella.

She tweets as @fleetstreetfox and has a new book, The Diaries of a Fleet Street Fox, for sale.

    “Glidiator

    "fox" a carnivorous animal of the dog family that has a pointed muzzle, large ears, a long bushy tail, and usually reddish-brown or grey fur. Foxes are found throughout most of the world and hunt alone, mainly at night, relying on cunning and an acute sense of hearing and smell. Genus: Vulpes

    Taken from a well known dictionary, quite appropriate!!!!!!”

    “Why on earth did she have the cheek to call herself a "fox" - far from it! No wonder she was being divorced!”
