Author: Sophie Hinchliffe

Sophie Hinchliffe is the home writer and broadcaster widely known as Mrs Hinch. Hinch Yourself Happy grew from the cleaning routines and practical household ideas she shared with a large social-media audience. Michael Joseph released the volume in 2019 as a room-by-room guide combining product suggestions with daily, weekly, monthly, and seasonal plans. Hinchliffe presents cleaning as a manageable source of structure, paying attention to both orderly spaces and the sense of calm that routine can bring. The book also introduces the playful vocabulary associated with her public persona, including the term "hinching." Her later publishing has ranged from journals and memoir to children's books, but this first volume remains closely tied to the accessible cleaning guidance that established her readership. Hinch Yourself Happy therefore sits between a domestic handbook and a personal account of how small household habits became the basis of Hinchliffe's work.
