Caroline Sanderson

Caroline Sanderson began her career as a bookseller and later worked in publishing before becoming a freelance writer and books journalist.

She compiles monthly non-fiction previews for The Bookseller magazine, where she is associate editor. She is also programme director of Stroud Book Festival and a Royal Literary Fund writing-for-life fellow, supporting writing skills within the NHS. In 2024 she was appointed honorary president of the Society of Indexers.

The author of six non-fiction books, she is married with two twenty-something children and lives in Gloucestershire in a house with too few bookshelves.

Music was her first love and will quite possibly be her last.
