Honno is managed by an enthusiastic committee of volunteer women from Wales, who meet regularly to support the staff, discuss the books, manage the finances and determine the strategic direction of Honno. They have a wide mix of different work experiences and are from all over Wales. Our only rules for committee members are that they must be Welsh women and Honno shareholders - and Honno cannot publish books by committee members.
Currently the Honno Committee Members are:
Eurwen Booth: Eurwen found Honno its present home in Ceredigion and successfully applied for funding for office space and computer equipment - also housing a whole stock of books at home during the process! She was the assistant to Honno's first funded editor, Elin ap Hywel.
Cathryn Charnell-White: For Cathryn Charnell-White, an eighteenth-century specialist and editor of an anthology of Early Modern Welsh women's poetry (Beirdd Ceridwen), her involvement with the Honno committee is an extension of her interest in Welsh literature and women's studies.
Catriona Graham: Catriona has been following HONNO's fortunes since it started and, after many years working in senior management in local government, escaped in time to do some of the things she's always wanted to do, like getting involved with HONNO.
Luned Meredith:Luned Meredith is one of the Honno founder members. Her main interest originally was to spark an interest in forgotten women writers and their work. Born in Cardiff and brought up in Bangor, she now lives in Llanuwchllyn.
Rosanne Reeves:One of the founder members of Honno back in 1986 who helped to keep the show on the road before Elin ap Hywel was appointed as our first paid Editor.
Now translates for Honno and represents the press at book launches in Cardiff and south Wales.
Gwyneth Tyson Roberts: Gwyneth Roberts taught English in Baghdad and Lisbon, and linguistics in the Department of Cultural Studies, University of East London, before moving to Aberystwyth in 1994. She edited the Honno anthology on Welsh women's experiences of living and working abroad (Even the Rain is Different), and has a particular interest in language issues and women's writing in 19th century Wales.
Janet Thomas: Janet worked for several years in publishing in London before moving back home to Aberystwyth, where she is a freelance editor. She was Honno Editor for two years, and has edited several Honno anthologies, before joining the committee.
Stephanie Tillotson: Stephanie's background is in Theatre, Television and Radio production though most recently she has been teaching at the Department of Theatre
Studies, Aberyswtyh University. She joined the Honno committee in 2006 and is a passionate supporter of encouraging new Welsh women's writing.
Leigh Verrill-Rhys is a writer and marketing consultant. She co-edited the Honno anthology Parachutes & Petticoats and edited On My Life. Raised in San Francisco and a former lecturer at San Francisco State University she has learned Welsh to 'O' Level since moving to Wales over twenty years ago. Leigh has been involved with Honno in various capacities since 1987, recently rejoining the Committee.
