Hooray - the fabulous Jo Brand will be giving a keynote speech at BlogFest! She's a comedian, writer, actor and (occasionally scurrilous) national treasure, and we're absolutely thrilled that she's going to be joining us.
Other recently-announced guests include roguish commentator Toby Young, who'll join Stella Creasy MP and Richard Bacon to ask 'what kind of internet do we want?'; authors Lionel Shriver and AL Kennedy, who'll talk about crafting a perfect narrative; and feminist icon Charlotte Raven, who'll help us tease out the answer to the question 'can you be a 'mummy blogger' - and still be a feminist?'
Plus the lovely Tim Dowling, the twinkly Prof Robert Winston, and the very wise Prof Tanya Byron - not to mention stylish politico Louise Mensch, gimlet-eyed commentator Glosswitch, and campaigning big guns Jack Monroe, and Laura Bates of Everyday Sexism.
It's shaping up to be a brilliant celebration of sharp writing and big ideas - so do join us on the 9th November at the suitably swish Kings Place in central London. Hurry though - tickets are selling fast, so book now to make sure you're there on the day!
