Ruth Spivey · The Wine Column No-one Asked For

I’ve had this in my drafts for 18 months. From time to time I’ve revisited thinking I’ll snap it into shape, but I don’t because I am continually too het up about the subject. I concluded I don’t have it in me to write anything smart, cool or probably even coherent.

But, on the cusp of International Women’s Day, whilst I remain het up, I’m pressing publish regardless. It’s not the brilliantly written and particularly incisive, but sometimes writing something is (possibly) better than writing nothing.

Note: as a long time freelancer I am very aware that some of what we do is unpaid - pitching for articles or new clients for example, having initial meetings. I understand that comes with the territory. This is not about that type of thing.
