All the book events are totally free, so please do come along and have a glass of a wine and a cupcake with me!


Plus! While I’m in San Francisco I’ll be hosting a special day at the Teahouse Studios on July 15th with my friend, Mati Rose McDonough — we’re calling it Books, Business & Boys!

From the Teahouse website:

Join us for a day of nourishing connection, delicious food and candid conversation on some of our favorite topics: books, boys and business!

Both Susannah and Mati run successful creative businesses, have newly published books and have also experienced profound love losses. In the process of building their businesses, writing their books and healing, they have learned some valuable life lessons and have found their way back to themselves.

Now they’re out birthing their books (and beginning to dip their toes in the world of dating) and want to talk about all the juicy details of dreaming big. Plus, it’s just fun to dish about boys, right?

This will be an intimate, soulful and light-hearted day of sharing, storytelling and community. We’ll create a space where we can talk about the real questions in life. We’re all in this together, making it up as we go along and learning from one another along the way. We’ll be available to talk shop, demystify our creative businesses and book-writing journeys.
We’re going to be holding space for 20 like-minded souls to dive into conversation around a table filled with delicious food and a LOT of laughter. You can ask us ANYTHING — seriously!

Andrea and Kelly Rae hosted a similar event in May and we were so inspired we wanted to bring our stories to the Teahouse table too. if you can make it on the 15th I’d love to spend the day with you. Places are limited to 20 so best to register soon.

In the meantime, I’m planning what to bring with me because with EIGHT flights in total over 3.5 weeks I’ve realised checking a suitcase is going to be a nightmare… so I’m only taking a carry-on. This thrills and terrifies me in equal measure. This is where I’m at right now:

You see that teeny tiny suitcase? Yep, that’s what I’m taking. Thankfully, the silver boots are staying at home.
