I have been a feminist music critic for thirty years, starting at the Melody Maker pre-digital and post-digital as a section editor for thegirlsare online magazine, the F Word, and other publications. Any archive material is supported by an overview of popular culture at the time and a deconstruction using 21st-century feminist, cultural, media and socio-political theory.
I also write short stories and novellas which will appear here, but my current writing project is a creative non-fiction book based on my 20-something self’s manifesto for writing when a live reviewer in the 90s. You can access the Prologue, and Chapter’s 1, 2 and 3 for free.
