Journalist Zoe Williams is joining us for a webchat at MNHQ on Thursday 14 June at 1pm. Zoe's latest book, What Not to Expect When You're Expecting, is a refreshing antidote to the standard pregnancy and parenting books. It considers issues such as the overbearing public guidelines on what not to eat or drink and weighs up the relative merits of different childcare routines - 'It doesn't make any sodding difference.'

Zoe is best known as a Guardian columnist, where she once wrote: 'They are brilliant on Mumsnet. They know everything. If you wanted to know how soon you could breastfeed after taking an E, someone on Mumsnet could probably tell you.' She also writes for the New Statesman, The Spectator, NOW Magazine, London Cyclist and the London Evening Standard.

She lives in London with her partner and two children.

Join her on Thursday at 1pm or post a question to Zoe ahead of the webchat here.

Hi Zoe,

  • Always find your articles v funny and well observed - I remember you from G&L (year below I think)- you were funny then too.

Have had 4 babies since - started early (ish) but wish there had been more commentators with irreverant voice and comic take when I was deep in the quagmire of milk and shit that is new motherhood.
I am now a newbie blogger with an eye on the school gate - hoping to raise some smiles in the, rather too earnest, world of Mummystuff. (just got blog of week from Mumsnet - Whooo Hooo, Get Me!)
Check me out if you have a second - chroniclesofdomesticdisaster.wordpress.com/
