Hannah
Hannah Atkinson is the newest member of the Marketing team. She is gently being coaxed in the world of SF by swapping geeking out at Arrested Development to knowing her Abercrombie from her Aaronovitch. Hannah can often be seen in the office eating other people’s snacks and asking Jen her 18th question of the day, whilst working on trying to make people love the books she has just fallen in love with through the power of social media, and trying to sneak terrible puns into copy. She loves breakfast foods above all things, and will aggressively justify why Mean Girls is in her top three films when questioned, leaving you to wish you’d never asked and/or for early death. You can follow her on Twitter: @hatkinson_. You cannot follow her in real life.

Gollancz Team: Hannah - April 4th, 2013
Competition, Dark Fantasy, Extract, Sarah Pinborough
We’re very excited to be sharing a steamy chapter from Sarah Pinborough‘s forthcoming Poison, a modern day fairy tale with a sexy edge.
Poison tells the story of Snow White, but not as you know her. In this contemporary re-imagining of the classic fairy tale, Snow White behaves slightly differently than you might expect – drinking beer with the dwarves being at top of the list.
