Very excited to share my book Catastrophe Foretold will be published by @vikingbooks.bsky.social (UK) and Union Square (US)!! My book traces warnings before ten major disasters of the past century, and why so many went unheeded. Huge thanks to @mmagency.bsky.social & amazing @agentbal.bsky.social

A middle aged woman with glasses and shoulder length hair with a fringe reads from the festival programme. She is wearing an anorak. A younger woman with long braids has her arm round her, looking at the programme. She is wearing a white crop top and a black jacket. In a pink block at the bottom reads “Can’t make the festival in person? There are lots of ways you can join in at home. Find out more at DeptfordLitFest.com”
Can't make #DeptfordLitFest in person? There are lots of ways you can take part from home – from online writing prompts and exercises you can do in your own time, to reading new work by Festival writers and watching our events streamed online.

In publishing we are still not equal.
Did you know, last year, that only 8% of the top 50 business books in the UK were written by women? It's clear that we are still not presenting female authors as the experts, thought leaders and changemakers they are.
The result?
