Forty years ago, sexual harassment was as
much a part of workplace culture as the tea lady.
Nowadays the tea lady is gone but the sport of treating women workers like sex objects is not. ​Valerie has spent her working life being good.
​
It's high time for Bad Valerie to come forward.​
Be a Good Girl, Valerie is published by Ventura Press. Available in paperback and ebook formats throughout Australia and New Zealand.
​
"I channelled my own long-buried anger into the character of Valerie and made her a proxy for women who have missed out on the opportunity to bring abusers to account."
Marcia van Zeller, author of Be a Good Girl, Valerie
​Praise for Be a Good GIrl, Valerie
