Anne Wilson is an award-winning scriptwriter, journalist and careers counsellor. After doing an MSc and a PhD in social psychology at the LSE, and publishing a book on children's identity, she became a freelance journalist, writing for publications such as Just Seventeen, Cosmopolitan, the New York Times, Good Housekeeping and the Guardian. Anne moved on to writing for screen media and has won numerous awards for her films in the corporate sector. She has also published two crime novels, featuring Sara Kingsley, a single-mother detective — Truth or Dare and Governing Body — both published by the Women's Press.   Anne is committed to teaching and mentoring and in 2010 she started offering private careers counselling to new graduates as well as advising university applicants on their personal statements. She became a Royal Literary Fellow and, most recently, has been supporting students at Brunel University.   In this episode we tackle the mystique surrounding academic writing - what it actually is and why academics are vague about what 'good' looks like in their discipline.   Anne explains how writing is dynamic and how it changes from the starting out phase to writing up; and why your literature is not a fixed entity that won't change.   We also discuss the challenges of academic writing for neurodivergent scholars.   In closing, Anne offers a wealth of top tips including how to find your academic voice and how to ask for the feedback that you need.

Come and join the conversation with the gorgeous Rosie Nixon: Author, Coach, Host, Philanthropist & HELLO! Magazine Editor-at-Large. We begin with Rosie's recollection of cutting out the pages of Smash Hits Magazine, graduating from Sussex University & getting her first taste of journalism. Her early career as a book editor,moving into magazines later, pouring over the pages of the Media Guardian as it was at the time, THE place for job opportunities in the industry, a far cry from the instant access job postings we have today!We chat about the day to day in an editorial role, being so immersed in the intensity of her work & the pressure of wearing so many hats. Going from working in teen magazines like Bliss & Just Seventeen,she then ventured into more celebrity content and started filling up her "little black book" of contacts over the years.We have a nostalgic look back on the times when life was simpler, when we used to get our news from physically picking up a copy of our favourite title!We reminisce about the old days with the flow chart quizzes in magazines, gathering info about friendships, boys, our favourite bands & growing up!Rosie is an advocate for inspiring women through her work with HELLO!, charity ambassadorships, coaching, campaigns, you can tell that the passion runs deeply with her and it's her life mission to make sure that women's voices are heard loud & clear.Chatting about the importance of looking at our lives & recognising when things need to change, Rosie tells me of her venture into coaching, specifically for midlife women, the transition having come from a time of her own personal change and the desire to help others to do the same. Continuing to want to amplify the voices of women in multiple capacities in issues such as menopause and FGM awareness, Rosie adds an extra layer of credibility to her campaigns and work by having the backing of leading experts, something which massively sets her apart from others, further cementing her as a trusted figure in her line of work! This comes from the personal sense of responsibility that she's always felt in her career to give the impressionable younger audience in particular, sound advice and access to the best information possible. It is clear that Rosie has and has always had the best interests of her audience at heart and tells me about the vital importance of starting conversations around topics that are often difficult to talk about.We move on to chat about all things books! Her path to becoming an author was always at the forefront of her mind with being a writer anyway as a journalist & editor, something she did find difficult in the beginning however was finding her authentic voice as a novelist. Convinced that there was a certain style she "should" be writing in, Rosie tells me about the lightbulb moment for her when she realised she should in fact write about what she knew! She tells me about her The Stylist trilogy, the main character going on her own epic journey of self-discovery, mirroring Rosie's own personal experiences in many ways. Exploring ways in which we as women find out what works for us,Rosie and I share what helped us through some of our darkest times. We discuss the key to knowing when we are ready to share our story, showing ourselves the same compassion & kindness that we would for others.The positive impact that journaling had, crediting it as a great tool that she utilised to help her in a therapeutic way. The re-release of her Be Kind book which was originally released during the pandemic, will now be available in paperback at a super affordable price in October 24. Packed full of tips, tools and inspirational words,centered around self compassion and kindness. Such an inspiring lady, breaking down barriers, championing others & paving the way,opening up conversations for so many women & the next generation, you are an absolute joy & a true definition of YES SHE CAN!

In their heyday women's magazines sold 12 million copies a week. And at their best, these magazines changed women's lives. They advised, they inspired, they gave us a glimpse of a different way of being — and that was as true of Cosmopolitan as it was of the feminist magazine Spare Rib.    In our Season 2 finale, Ros Taylor talks to Sam Baker, who edited Just Seventeen, Company, Cosmopolitan and Red, about what it was like to play such a big role in teenage girls' lives, and Roisin Boyd, a member of the Spare Rib collective.    • “If you looked at Cosmopolitan, it was about how you should look, you were objectified… it was about how you should perform for men.” – Roisin Boyd  • “The sense of someone knowing you were thinking something almost before you thought it.” – Sam Baker  • “She had the idea of producing badges that said ‘Don't Do It, Di' … There was a lot of humour. You need humour to keep sane.” – Roisin Boyd    Written and presented by Ros Taylor. Produced by Jade Bailey. Original music by Dubstar. Managing Editor: Jacob Jarvis. Group Editor: Andrew Harrison.

Margaret talks to writer, podcaster and producer of this podcast Sophie Black about John Lennon, being attracted to a cartoon wolf, and writing to Just Seventeen to get a photo of a bloke in The Bill.

My guest today is the international bestseller Dorothy Koomson. She started young - she had her first stab at writing a book at 13 - and, like me, worked on Just Seventeen, amongst many other magazines, before actually publishing her first novel at 30. She has now written 16 Sunday Times bestsellers and is the biggest selling Black author of adult fiction in the UK - not bad for a woman whose debut novel was turned down for, amongst other things, having a Black character but not being about “the Black experience”.Her latest, I know what you've done, is just out in paperback and has been described as “Desperate Housewives but darker”. It's also completely stuffed with brilliant parts for midlife women - ITV, I'm looking at you!Dorothy joined me from Brighton to talk about feeling like you're “enough”, 80s TV crushes, the gynae and thyroid hell that gave her constant hot flushes, facing up to grey pubic hair and why there's still A LOT of work to do when it comes to telling all women's stories. Oh and why we need to bring back Golden Girls. I'm here for that!• You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at Bookshop.org, including I Know What You've Done by Dorothy Koomson and the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me!• The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Emily Sandford.

For our fifth podcast we were pleased to be joined by author and broadcaster David Hepworth. We chat about his new book (‘Overpaid, Oversexed and Over There'), his popular Word in Your Ear podcasts and videocasts, the ways technology has shaped the way we consume and identify with music (“We've all got the same record collection nowadays”) and the perils of buying records after the pub.With the recently launched Apple TV+ series ‘1971: The Year That Music Changed Everything' – based on David's acclaimed book, we also discuss some of the exceptional albums that were released that year, the pleasures of digging out old records during lockdown and how “popular music is all about hair when you come down to it”.To accompany the show, we have compiled this exclusive playlist for your enjoyment - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/24asohBbyyaYWRzzuJEUcJ?si=fc772575e6f541acwww.davidhepworth.comWord In You Ear www.wiyelondon.comDavid's biog:David comes from Yorkshire and worked in a London record shop in the 70s. At the same time he started writing for music papers. After a year with an independent record company he started writing and editing full-time. He joined Smash Hits in 1979, not long after it launched, and became the editor. He then went on to oversee the launch of magazines like Just Seventeen, Q, Empire, Mojo, More and Heat in the 80s and 90s. At the same time he was also broadcasting for the BBC. During the Live Aid concert of 1985 he was sworn at by Bob Geldof in front of what was then the world's largest TV audience, an incident which has now turned up in Britain's favourite film. He writes about radio and podcasting for the Radio Times, blogs here and podcasts there. His books "1971: Never A Dull Moment", "Uncommon People: The Rise and Fall of the Rock Stars" and "A Fabulous Creation" are all Sunday Times best-sellers.

The music writer Laura Barton presents a triptych of meditations on the enduring qualities, appeal and intent of pop music. At the age of seventeen we stand on the cusp of adulthood, on the edge of new autonomy, freedom, beginning. It is the age, too that has preoccupied songwriters from Chuck Berry via the Beatles and Stevie Nicks to Olivia Rodrigo, who this year - at the age of seventeen - had a global hit with a song about getting that symbol of maturity, her driver's licence. Laura talks to Janis Ian, herself on the edge of 70, and Sharon Van Etten, who's just turned 40, about the 'seventeen' songs they've written, as well as the music journalist David Hepworth, founding editor of Just Seventeen magazine, about what makes seventeen the pivotal age for pop music. (Including extracts from Lost in Vegas with George and Ryan and Take 5 with Chit Chat on MAX TV) Broken Social Scene - Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl Stevie Nicks - Edge of Seventeen Sharon Van Etten - Seventeen Joan Jett - I Love Rock n Roll Olivia Rodrigo - Drivers License Jackie DeShannon - When You Walk in the Room The Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There Janis Ian - At Seventeen Chuck Berry - Little Queenie Meat Loaf - Paradise by the Dashboard Light The Cars - Let's Go Abba - Dancing Queen Ladytron - Seventeen The Regents - Seventeen The Flamingos - Only Seventeen Ray Coniff - Seventeen Fontane Sisters - Seventeen The Supremes - He's Seventeen The Crystals - What a Nice Way to Turn Seventeen St Etienne - When I was Seventeen Frank Sinatra - It Was a Very Good Year Elton John - Between Seventeen and Twenty David Gates - Love is Always Seventeen The Magic Numbers - Only Seventeen Emilio - Seventeen Produced by Alan Hall A Falling Tree production for BBC Radio 4

This is Set Piece Menu - the podcast where four friends talk football over food. And this time they're doing it live! The 100th Episode Spectacular is upon us, as a room of (actually paying) guests join Andy, Rory, Steven and Hugh as part of the Manchester Podcast Festival. The football: It Must Have Been Love... But Is It Over Now? We discuss if the enjoyment we get out of football is now outweighed by the things we don't like about it - and wonder if there might even be a need for us both to go on a break. The issue is decided by the panel completing the kind of quiz you'd find in the pages of Just Seventeen. The food: Brownies (with a special ingredient), made for all 100-plus people in the room by Nicky Hinchcliffe, to whom we are eternally grateful. Thanks to all those who came to join us for our live show! Pics can be found in all the usual places, including: @setpiecemenu facebook.com/setpiecemenu And you can email the podcast on setpiecemenu@gmail.com

Along the way we'll be getting annoyed at a fictional schoolboy’s opinions on Monty Python’s Flying Circus, critically evaluating Richard Murdoch’s cameo in The Wire, and trying our hardest to avoid talking about a cannibalistic emulsified cross between Last Tango In Paris and Straw Dogs. Plus there’s also something you may not have heard before - Tim talking to Emma Burnell and Steve Fielding on The Zeitgeist Tapes about Doctor Who and politics...
