A New Writer Supports The Reader
We're delighted to announce a new Reading Revolution supporter: Anna Lawrence Pietroni. After working as an officer for several years in the British prison system, Anna turned to writing. Actually she wrote in her lunch breaks, her bus journeys - anywhere she could. Read more about how she swapped prison for the pen in this Daily Mail feature. Her debut novel is called Ruby's Spoon and we highly recommend it to you.
Anna joins a growing list of Writers That Support The Reader:
- Blake Morrison (Patron)
- David Almond
- A.S. Byatt
- Frank Cottrell Boyce
- Howard Jacobson
- Brian Keenan
- Andrew Motion
- Jeanette Winterson
Who will be next...?
