This is Anchor Baby, a bi-weekly newsletter where I share a whole load of thoughts that should probably be private.

Free subscribers will receive a weekly opinion piece in which I extoll the virtues of or complain bitterly about a topic of my choosing. Consider it a lucky dip: you never know what you’ll get! This email will also include podcast and book recommendations, the low-down on whatever “culture” (ahem) I’ve been consuming that week and perhaps even some bonus musical clips that are helping get me through the day.

For paid subscribers, you get a key to my house – or, at the very least, a look through the door. Each week I’ll send you a piece of personal writing that may deal with a variety of topics and goings-on, from new motherhood (coming soon!) to emigration, politics, feminism, love, relationships, dating… it’s all up for grabs.

Thank you so much for visiting; I hope you stick around!
