Why write

Because I want to get ideas out of my head. 

Because I enjoy the process of thinking and creating. 

Because words are an accessible way to support people. 

Because I want to ensure there is a greater record of women’s thinking in history. 


Aha! This one snags at me. Too many quotes in history are from men: Albert Einstein, Henry Ford and his faster horses, Steve Jobs.. 

We cycle through the same books by the same authors and end up thinking the same. 


How many female authors are on your bookshelf or in your kindle? 

How many books by women authors are you reading? 

How many women authors are cited in that article ‘10 best books to read on...’? 

When did you last recommend or review a book by a woman? 


The history that is looked back on in the future won’t change unless we change it... now, in our time. 

I reckon I’m here to help create a record of thinking. First my own, then others, and to guide others through working out what they think, and expressing those ideas. 

Expression of ideas via speech, presentation, interview, blog, podcast, conversation, artwork, article, post, book - whatever appeals. 

There’s more to come on the project of Future Thinking Women.
