An Exciting Journey Together

I thought I’d let you into a little secret! Since October, together with 14 fellow Sister Snog members, I have been working on a very exciting collaboration project - to write and publish a multi-authored book 📖

All my co-authors are female entrepreneurs who have set up and grown their own businesses. Some I’ve known for very many years, others have come into my life more recently. Some have already published their own books. Others, like me, are new to this. What bonds us together is the passion we have for what we do are, the values we share and a desire to share our knowledge and experience as widely as possible to help others. 

Writing a book has been on my list for some time now but it’s one of those things I thought would probably never make it to the top of my list, at least not until I retire – and I have no plans to do that any time soon! 

But a phone call from the wonderful Mindy Gibbins-Klein, - aka The Book Midwife - offering a fantastic opportunity to dip my toe into the water by contributing a chapter to a multi-authored book that she was coordinating changed all that. 

Wind the clock forward a few months, all of our chapters have been written and edited, the book cover has been designed and the final copy has gone to the publisher for printing. It’s all starting to feel very real. Over the next few weeks I’ll share more details about the book itself, when it will be launched and, of course, how and where you can get a copy!

But, for now, I would like to say a huge ‘thank you’ to my fabulous co-authors. I feel very lucky and am incredibly grateful to be sharing this very special experience with such an inspirational group of women. I know publishing the book is really only the first stage of an exciting journey together. I’m looking forward to sharing - and celebrating - every step of that journey with you all.
