*The fresh, frank and very funny new novel from Dawn O’Porter – CAT LADY – is available to buy now* Dawn O’Porter has been thinking a lot about life.Mostly from a cupboard (and she’s definitely not hiding from her children).

So if you need a shake-up in your life, here’s the tonic – with a perfect splash of tequila… ‘What should you expect?

Dawn O'Porter redresses the balance by telling it as it really has been: fighting a losing battle against a tide of mess, noise and need, and holding out for 5pm to crack open the tequila’ Mark Watson
