One thing I love about writing books is being able to slip in my own agendas — usually feminism. In my current WIP, it’s the correct amount of clotted cream for a scone. And no, it’s not an individual 40g portions, it requires scooping a serving out of a tub with an ice-cream scoop. #sapphicbooks

My birthday present to myself has finally arrived and I can’t wait to dive in! It feels freshly plucked from Clem’s extensive feminist bookshelf in ‘Barging In’. ‘You Stand On Her Shoulders’ explores 50 female inventors and pioneers the patriarchy doesn’t want you to know about.
