Since 2019, Anna has brought eight books into the world, each one shaped by stories, collaboration, and a deep love for wild places and interesting people. Together with co-author Vicky Allan, she has journeyed through words and water to create Taking The Plunge (2019), For The Love of Trees (2020), The Art of Wild Swimming series (Scotland, England & Wales, and Ireland, spanning 2021 to 2022), followed by The Ripple Effect (2023), and Swimming Wild Ireland (2024). All published by Black & White Publishing/Bonnier.

In 2021 The Wild Guide Balearic Islands was published, an expansive and evocative travel guide to the wilder side of the islands, co-written with her sister, Lizzie Graham, and published by Wild Things Publishing.

Now Anna steps into a new chapter with her first solo book. The Wild Fix Scotland will arrive in September 2026, published once again by Black & White/Bonnier, marking the beginning of a fresh and exciting new creative path.
