CAROLINE ANNE BUTT was born in Sydney in 1944. She was a highly religious, innocent and nerdy girl. She grew up on Sydney’s Lower North Shore, in a non-affluent, stable and loving home. She’s been a Share Clerk, school teacher, tutor, painter, researcher and writer. Her published works have been an eclectic mix: writing for children, magazine articles, multimedia CDs, Life Writing, short stories. Her first memoir, Pumpkin, was published in 2019 and she’s just finished her second memoir, The Steering Wheel. She experienced power and powerlessness in family, religious and patriarchal settings and continues to question their foundations. While she’s found her own true north, she knows that, even then, tides always turn.

CATHERIN J PASCAL DUNK is a poet, yarnbomber and book editor from right here on the Central Coast. She’s wanted to be a ‘famous author’ since forever, but is still working on it.

She’s been published in ‘Sappho Queers Anthology’, Melbourne poetry zine, ‘LOUD MOUTH’ and in the Florida-based online magazine, ‘Edge of Humanity’.

You can find her work on her poetry blog Wordflower, where she publishes her own work and that of selected, fabulous guest poets.

DONNÉ RESTOM is your not-so-humble host for the evening — and she can’t wait to see you all there!
