MINA HOLLAND

Mina Holland is a writer and editor, mostly about food and drink. She spent twelve years as an editor at the Guardian, working across all its food sections, most recently Feast, and during that time wrote two cookery books. In an unplanned move away from food, her latest book, Lifeblood: A Mother in Search of Hope, is a memoir about her path to accepting a version of motherhood she had never imagined. She now regularly contributes to the Guardian, the Observer, Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar and Toast, and is an occasional restaurant advisor. For The New Menard Press she contributed to the bestselling anthology On Being Ill.
