Housewife and mother of two, Mitzy Barlow, is tired of the stifling monotony of her everyday life. With a husband who brushes off all affection and a routine that leaves her bored out of her mind, playing pretend is no longer enough.

To help make ends meet, she hosts Tupperware parties, selling plastic promises of the perfect home. But her true escape has always been the written word; scribbling fantasies in her journal each night to sooth the ache of a loveless marriage. So when an opening for a copywriting job appears, Mitzy leaps at it, typing through long nights to bring in money - and to fulfil a long-lost dream - even if it is lengthy legal documents.

Soon she begins typing up her own stories, rewriting the endings of classic novels with bolder and steamier scenes, much to the delight of the neighbourhood mothers who start sending in requests of their own. Under the safety of her new pseudonym 'Queen B', Mitzy creates an air-tight system to deliver her erotica, slipping stories into Tupperware containers and taking discreet orders at her parties.

Demand is high, and as her secret career starts to blossom, Mitzy allows herself to dream of a different kind of life. But when whispers of indecent, unmotherly conduct start to spread round that could put her family's livelihood at risk, is Mitzy too naïve in thinking her risky pages could be her silver lining, or can she rewrite the ending of her own story before it's too late?

Blending wit, warmth, and rebellion, Wet Ink is a feminist story of desire, embracing ambition, and the different shades of resistance alive in each of us.
