Latest Work By Me

Rounding off 2013 nicely with a book review for the Telegraph, where I found Justin Quinn's Mount Merrion fascinating when dealing with the emancipation of Irish women, and tedious when dealing with the tractor industry....

...and the incredibly exciting job of producing this podcast for BBC's College of Production, where three very talented women from different broadcast backgrounds discuss the lack of women working in technical roles in broadcast production, and give their views on how this can be changed.

Latest Writing by Me

Apologies for the recent silence on here - I've been busy writing elsewhere. Here are a couple of my latest published pieces:

A review of Sam Lipsyte's The Fun Parts for The Sunday Telegraph.

And a review of Alex and Marcus Lewis' memoir Tell Me Who I Am, for The Guardian.

Latest Writing By Me

I've been working at Telegraph Books again - here are a couple of my online pieces:

One about Waterstones' new initiative, The Book That Made Me, where readers are invited to share stories of books that changed their lives.

And one on Amazon launching a platform where authors can license their work to be used as fiction (clue: I'm sceptical about it).

I'll also be reviewing this book for the print edition, and in the meantime I encourage anyone whose knowledge of first-wave feminism needs a boost to buy it.

Latest Writing By Me

I've had the extreme pleasure of being at Telegraph Books this week, and here's what I've written for them so far:

A piece on Hilary Mantel's controversial words about Kate Middleton, in which I suggest that the Daily Mail do a little more close reading and a little less hypocritical hand-wringing.

And a piece bemoaning the lack of originality in the current publishing world, as another piece of BDSM-themed Twilight fan-fiction lands a major publishing contract.

It's been an incredible week, I hope to be back with more soon!
