In chaos
Danuta Kean and Isobel de Vasconcellos have put together The Emilia Report into the gender pay gap for writers, and it makes sobering reading.

You can read a Word doc of the report here, and you can read an explanation about its title here.

It's an interesting, but not surprising, report. I have to wonder how we can hope to change things, and make things better and more equal.

Not where you last saw me.
It was interesting to learn about Emilia Bassano and a blasted shame I'm only hearing of her work now.

We all "know" those facts, but it's good to see them backed up. That there are only three key recommendations was surprising and I haven't a clue how those can be achieved as they go straight to the heart of reviewer and retailer mindsets and belief systems.

Also, I wish I could see the play.

Not a short read! But incredibly interesting; I shall finish reading when I'm out of the office. Back to work. :)
