June 23: I’m delighted to be the first writer featured on the new Inventive podcast pairing up engineers and writers – launched today on #InternationalWomenInEngineeringDay! It was an honour – and quite a challenge – to be commissioned to write a short story inspired by the extraordinary Shrouk El-Attar. You can listen here: http://hub.salford.ac.uk/inventivepodcast/
Available now in all good bookshops – On This Day She: Putting Women Back into History One Day at a Time (John Blake Books, 2021). Co-written by me, Jo Bell and Ailsa Holland as a spin-off from our OnThisDayShe Twitter account, it features 366 stories of women throughout history.
As well as buying signed copies direct from me here, you can now buy a selection of my books through my own shop on the new UK Bookshop.org website – as well as browse an ever-growing list of books that inspire my own writing, from octopuses to short stories, poetry and hybrids!
