"This is why I say a novel writes itself. One writes a novel in order to know why one writes it. It is the same with life-you live not for some end, but in order to know why you live."
ALBERTO MORAVIA
ABOUT
We believe every circle demands everyone give a level of personal risk. This ensures that all of it remains responsible and exciting .
Way back in 2012, two friends, in the arts became part of the first story coach team for Sydney Story Factory in Redfern. When we weren’t painting writing tables or ‘kid-sized’ stools Martian green, we were empowering young people to find their voices and write stories.
We’ve come a long way since then, and look forward to creating wonderful work with you.
