When she isn’t on the other side of the world, preparing to add to her bylines for the travel pages, Tracey Davies is probably appearing in the pubs and clubs of Sussex and London as the stand-up “Tracey Danger”. On Tuesday evening this week in Brighton, she was performing at Komedia and beat seven other contestants to reach the final of the annual New Comedy Award. Today, with her fellow travel writer and co-author of the Wayward Wimmin Substack, Rhonda Carrier, she publishes Wayward Women: Sex, Friendship and the Midlife Reset (Bedford Square, £16.99). The publisher sums it up as “a raw, witty and fearless two-voice memoir of friendship, freedom and desire, as two fifty-something travel writers rediscover themselves after divorce”. Davies, on their Substack, says it is about the two of them “bouncing around the world from wild nights in Ibiza to frozen ones in Antarctica trying to find out who we are and what we want”.
