who is Mosey Jones?
Mosey is a writer and journalist whose expertise spans business to parenting and all points in between. Mum to Boy One and Boy Two, she is frequently frazzled, bemused and knackered. This does not stop her watching bad US drama instead of 'sleeping when baby sleeps' (whoever said that only has one child) or making a start on the washing up. For the latter, she has employed a husband, to whom she is paying minimum wage, and even less attention.
Mosey also writes under the name Morag Cuddeford-Jones, which annoys sub-editors a lot and takes up far too many characters on twitter.

And sometimes Henry makes way for Sarah Walker which leads to double trouble with two women at the helm for an hour. The topics are just as serious, the perspective wholly fresh.
my agents
The deal for The Mumpreneur Diaries was struck by non-fiction literary agents Graham Maw Christie. Clients include Jack Osborne, son of Ozzy and reality TV star and The Sunday Times' alternative health expert, Jennifer Harper-Deacon.
They were an invaluable part of bringing the book to reality and contributed to every stage from developing the concept to the final proof and promotion. Absolutely couldn't have done it without them - in fact, I hope we can do it all over again!
