Happy 70th to my unbelievably amazing mum. I know what you’re thinking… I’d kill for those genes.
Off on a real Old Skol night out, with my Old Skol friends. A gig and a drink in rainy Reading. Like being 17 again… but with more aches and a sensible coat.
So chuffed with this photo taken of me @wimbookfest today! I usually look maniacal while mid-rant, but here I look earnest and mild-mannered. A rare moment indeed!
Happy day! Sharing a stage with David Mitchell in Chester Storyhouse. Huge audience. Cracking questions. History has never been so fun!

This time two years ago I was discovering how incredible Hildegard of Bingen is at her original home of Disibodenberg. So much has happened since then and the book she ended up starring in – Femina – went on to such wonderful things!!
I’m off on an adventure!!!! But you can join me along the way @camlitfest ! Get your tickets online now for what I promise will be a fantastic event. Saturday 18th Nov. Exciting…. https://www.cambridgeliteraryfestival.com/events/janina-ramirez-historys-forgotten-women/
A new member of the family?? Trying to give a new home to Rosie, who recently lost her only friend and was very sad. Doing a slow introduction to the others. Hoping my girls take to her and the brood can happily get bigger!! Welcome Rosie!!
The continuing momentum behind my little book is a source of ongoing fascination to me!! Now @waterstones have made it one of their Paperbacks of the Year! I’m so grateful for everyone’s support. Christmas presents anyone 😜🎉🍾🎉🍾
You can hear the delight in my voice throughout this podcast with @jvn @CuriouswithJVN ! I loved talking orgasms, trans medieval and all things ‘Middle Ages’. Joy in a bleak global landscape
What the actual….?!?! It seems my Goddess book is a recommended New York Times book for Christmas! Perfect pressie for me 😱
