Such an honour to have spoken to Gillian Hamilton about my journey from poverty, teenage pregnancy, homelessness to being an award winning academic & recently speaking at the UN. My story recognises the positive impact that good people & great education policies had on my life!

First review in for the brilliant THE KING'S MOTHER by Annie Garthwaite! 💙🧡❤️ 'Well researched, brimful of leap-off-the-page characters, whose stories unspool in vivid, vital prose, this is a tightly plotted, electrifying read' Mail+.

'Garthwaite’s Cecily is driven, sometimes unlikeable and wholly convincing. A triumph.' A rave for Annie Garthwaite's THE KING'S MOTHER from Antonia Senior in the Times Books thetimes.com/culture/books/…

Incredibly proud of Catherine Airey and her messy, beautiful novel Confessions, which has been selected as an The Observer Top 10 Debut for 2025. Taking a moment to shoutout Laura Dermody who has been the best co-publicist on this campaign. Viking Books UK theguardian.com/books/2025/jan…
