Joe Gowdridge
Head of Writing

Joe will do anything to get published. His first piece of work was a series of poems that he traded to an Italian paper in exchange for leaked stories from his day job at a UN agency. Thankfully, we pay him to write for a living now.
As head of writing, he helps our writers find the joy and creativity in selling stuff that people both want and need. In his 5-to-9, you can find him being a parent, chasing his twice-rescued cat Princess Bitchy Face, and sometimes cycling cross-country.
