Hi all.
Friday is The Word is Woman day for me, but, after much consideration, I’m going to take a break while I get Ultra Processed Women over the finish line.
My deadline is the end of July, and I have a fair bit to do by then. It’s not impossible, but it will be 24-7 for me until it’s all done. I don’t think I can split my brain any more between female erasure and the impact of chicken nuggets on the menopause 😆
Because I’m not the kind of person who likes to take something for nothing, I’ll be pausing paid subscriptions between now and the start of September, when I will get everything back up and running on The Word is Woman. It’s amazing that in less than a year we have reached 42 editions of The Word is Woman and you can of course access the whole archive if you are needing a fix of rage interspersed with humorous gifs.
This doesn’t mean I am going away. Quite the opposite in fact, I’m going to be absolutely melded to my laptop for the next few weeks, so you’ll still be hearing from me if I have something fun to share with you like news of my book cover, or something that absolutely needs to be written about, for example if this email gets a response…
In the meantime, what does a pause to subscriptions mean?
Well, if your sub goes out monthly it means that will stop happening until I press go again.
And if you have been kind enough to pay for an annual sub it effectively means your sub will be extended by a couple of months.
It also means that nobody new can take out a paid sub until I press go again either.
I hope that makes sense to you and I wish you all a wonderful summer. Your support means such a lot to me.
Here I am in my happy place, about to go to a luxury publisher’s party at the V&A museum. My other happy place is when I am sat writing, but I’m afraid I don’t look quite as glam in my grubby PJs surrounded by the dirty dishes 😆
Cheerio for now, Milli x
Preorder your copy of Ultra Processed Women, it’s out on 27th February 2025!
You always cheer me up on a Friday Milli. I’ll miss you but good luck .. oh and you look stunning. Knock ‘em dead!
Hope you get a chance to relax once the book is finished. Have a great summer ☺️
