From the inimitable Margaret Heffernan, EMBRACING UNCERTAINTY is exactly the book we all need right now! It explores how to not only endure our uncertain and precarious world but thrive within it - and how to harness an artist’s mindset to fuel creativity, freedom & fearless innovation.

VERY excited to be publishing Dan's book! Watch this space...

Daniel Hewitt @danielhewittitv.bsky.social · Feb 7

Delighted / daunted to announce I’m writing my first book!

It will give voice to those left behind and ignored in Britain and how govts have let them down focusing on housing but also health, poverty and more

Grateful to @policypress.bsky.social @ginnymills.bsky.social. It’ll be published in 2027🤞
