Today I walked into my actual office for the first time since March and walked out for the last time. A big part of me will remain @newsouthbook and the book publishing world I so love. But now it’s time to throw myself into my book for @PenguinBooksAus to be delivered in 2021

.@pipmcg on Margaret Fulton: “How to quantify the lasting influence of a woman churning out step-by-step recipes in words and pictures in mass-market publications, but who was, in fact, doing much more: transmitting new forms of generosity and connection?” mnth.ly/Gu94Xis

Happy 100th Birthday to Margaret Fulton Great article by Phillipa McGuinness @pipmcg in @THEMONTHLY September 2024. It is about the woman who taught me how to cook and entertain friends and family. A true Australian Treasure who gave so much to so many. themonthly.com.au/issue/2024…
