I'm still getting into the swing of filming non-travel week vlogs, but really wanted to share this one with you. Would love to hear what you'd like to see more of!

(Sorry about the weird face blur, I've just figured out how to turn it off, but it will be there in the next 2 vlogs too).

Disclaimer notes: I worked with the publisher of The Burning by Laura Bates for a paid Instagram post, but wasn't asked to include it anywhere else. I also got a free ticket to see Hank Green's event from the publisher.

🚀 f a q

• Can you review my book?
I’m always happy to hear about upcoming books, but I’m afraid I don’t review self-published books and can only accept a small number of books for review. I enjoy reading classics, dystopian/apocalyptic novels, sci-fi, translated fiction and a variety of graphic novels, YA and contemporary literary fiction.

• Where is your accent from?
I was born and raised in the Netherlands, studied English Lit at Leiden University (also in the Netherlands), studied in the US for 3 months and have lots of American friends. I'm definitely not Irish or Canadian, I promise!

• Where do you live?
I live in London and have been here for 6 years now.

• How did you get into publishing?
I did publishing work experience, did a lot of networking and learned everything I know about social media from creating and running this channel. (P.s. You don't necessarily have to study Publishing or English to get a job in publishing!).
