We won the social Media category at #dert2018. And we came 3rd in the open :) We had a fabulous day, and are well chuffed with this! Thanks to @shefsteelrapper for the awesome hosting of DERT this year!

Tonight we are launching @3ofCupsPress and On Anxiety at the wonderful @BurleyFisher. I’m so proud of everyone involved in this — my colleagues and the contributors. I’m so thankful that the walk in the park with @clarebot became such a huge and brilliant thing.
Hi all! 2018 is the year that I start touring completely solo - a new thing for me and I’m incredibly excited. A totally new show and approach, intimate and varied. I’ll share all my dates which are in June and September. This one just in. Stay posted! Thanks for your support. https://t.co/9cGRKb7xXA
