Emma Gannon was born in 1989, the year the World Wide Web was conceived, so she’s literally grown up alongside the Internet. There’ve been late night chat room experiments, sexting from a Nokia and dubious webcam exchanges. And let’s not forget catfishing, MSN, digital friendships and #feminism. She was basically social networking way before it was a thing – and she’s even made a successful career from it.

Ctrl Alt Delete is Emma’s painfully funny and timely memoir, in which she aims to bring a little hope to anybody who has played out a significant part of their life online. Her confessions, revelations and honesty may even make you log off social media (at least for an hour).

Emma Gannon is an award-winning blogger, writer, podcaster and digital marketer.

She has written for numerous media outlets, including The Sunday Times, Telegraph, Guardian, Stylist, Grazia, Independent, Thought Catalog, Daily Beast, Huffington Post, Hello Giggles and Time Out. She is the former social media editor at The Debrief and British GLAMOUR.

She founded a popular culture blog in 2010, which can be found at emmagannon.co.uk, and was nominated for a Cosmopolitan Award in 2012 and won Highly Commended in the Young Person's Recognition at the 2015 National Blog Awards. Her blog newsletter has been named a "must-follow" by Harper's Bazaar, The Debrief and Grazia.

Emma has spoken on Sky News, at Social Media Week London, Facebook's Marketing Conference, the Turkish Blog Awards, Cheltenham Literary Festival and is a regular guest lecturer at the Condé Nast College of Fashion and Design about the power of social media.

Most recently, Emma's podcast 'Ctrl Alt Delete' hit number 16 in the iTunes charts on its first week of release and features guests such as Elizabeth Gilbert and Zoella.
