Sasha Wasley was born and raised in Boorloo (Perth), Western Australia. She completed a PhD in feminist literature at Murdoch University in 2006, and went on to work as a copywriter on topics ranging from mine safety to sex therapy. Sasha’s debut novel was published in 2015, after which she gave up her copywriting business to pursue her fiction writing career. She is a writing mentor and workshop facilitator and loves being involved in the Australian writing community. Sasha is passionate about levelling the playing field for members of the community experiencing disadvantage. She is an ambassador for the Books in Homes Australia charity, which provides books of choice for children in disadvantaged circumstances to keep in their home libraries. Today, she lives and writes in the Perth hills region with her partner and two adult children. A lover of animals, Sasha spends her free time pottering in the garden with her dog, cat and flock of backyard chickens.
I loved every word of Sasha Wasley’s The Society of Literary Marauders! This novel is a heartfelt celebration of literature, rebellion, and the bonds of friendship. Rich with authentic historical detail, The Society of Literary Marauders is essential reading for anyone who has ever sought comfort in books or dreamed of changing the world with words. * Kelly Rimmer, author of The Midnight Estate and The Paris Agent *
