The secret is out! I can finally say how thrilled I am to be Chair of the @WomensPrize for Fiction judges and feel honoured to be reading alongside these brilliant women.

For anyone keeping score, this is just the second half of 2024. We've taken on and platformed so many brilliant northern writers this year, and we'd love people to give their books a go!

Why not see if any of these pique your interest?

I had such a good time talking to Rachel & Madz!

Especially loved all of the agreement that the reading is the key to everything.

Never again in your life will you get to read the same thing as so many people at the same time & them get to talk about it. 👌📚
