Jessica Dettmann is a Sydney-based writer and performer. Her blog, Life With Gusto, turns a sharp but affectionate eye on modern parenthood. She has performed her work several times at Giant Dwarf's Story Club, and has appeared on their podcast. Jessica spent a decade as an in-house editor, at Random House Australia and at HarperCollins, before she made the transition to writing, after two small children rendered her housebound. She once appeared as the City of Sydney Christmas Angel and sat on top of the Town Hall in a frock that reached the street. Jake A Minton is an illustrator who lives near Byron Bay. He was shortlisted for the Little Hare Illustration Prize in 2020.
