Helen Lederer launches my Writer’s Gauntlet!

My new weekly Writer’s Gauntlet column for The Hooghly Review got off to a cracking celebrity start thanks to the wondrous wit and support of Helen Lederer, fairy godmother to witty women everywhere, award-winning author, comedian, founder of the Comedy Women in Print Prize. The inaugural column was published 12 June 2026. The wittiest responders will be invited to join me on a podcast!

Helen’s memoir Not That I’m Bitter is a joyous explosion of hilarity and humanity. Read the reviews by top literary critics and famous wits like Joanna Lumley, Ben Elton & Stephen Fry!
