Columnist Flic Everett is about to take on two new challenges: a sex advice column for the Daily Express and an agony column for Scarlet Magazine.
She’s spending her time working on her new book, a novel, after publishing How to be a Sex Goddess this summer.
The busy former Manchester Evening News columnist is also a finalist in the city’s Poem for Manchester contest, which is being run by the BBC.
The Sale-based writer’s recent work includes being agony aunt for Company Magazine, guest presenter on Radio 4 Woman’s Hour, and writing for The Mirror, the Sunday Express magazine, The Observer, The Guardian, She, and Red Magazine.
And the high-profile writer, until recently at the MEN, isn’t planning to rest up and keep out of the spotlight while she works on the new book.
She said: “I was sad to leave the Manchester Evening News because it’s where I started my career as a freelance writer, 10 years ago.
“Since writing the column, I’ve written it from France, America, Malaysia, and my sick-bed… but am still very much committed to the city.”
Her two new columns follow a string of sex advice handbooks, the latest hitting the bookshop shelves last month.
And at a promotional event for How to be a Sex Goddess, she told her potential readers: “It’s not about weight, or clothes, or hair – though these things can help – it’s all about how you feel inside.
“You can be 14 stone, with a crew cut and a face free of all cosmetic interference, but if you feel sexy, then sexy is what you’ll project to the world.”
