… My name on the front cover of a book, and why? I've only gone and become a published author - whoo hoo!

And today, International Women's Day, seems to be the perfect day to show off this amazing piece of work created through the collaboration of 15 brilliant business women who have all written a chapter about, guess what, #collaboration in business and how it creates success.

To kick start the book launch celebrations, my husband and I hosted an #amazingauthors dinner at our other business, a pop up restaurant, The Gilpin House Supper Club. It was truly a night to remember, with fun, laughter, the gifting of books and great excitement at what lies ahead of us. Not to mention the incredible food cooked by my marvellous husband, Peter Burt.

This has been a brilliant experience and, come May, our book will be available to buy in all good book shops.
