The Women's Press invited them to edit collections of poetry inspired by the shows. This led to In the Pink (1983), No Holds Barred (1985), an introduction to the work of Polish poet Anna Swir, Fat Like the Sun (1986), and a collection of prose and poetry about relationship breakdown, Bust Up (1992). Two decades later they have re-emerged with Hallelujah for 50ft Women: poems about women's relationship to their bodies (Bloodaxe Books, 2015). Raving Beauties have toured their shows in the UK, Ireland, Guernsey, Norway and Spain, and received British Council funding to visit Jamaica and Mexico.
