Women of Wynnum Manly
Women of Wynnum Manly is a fortnightly podcast that dives into the stories behind the women who contribute to the proud sense of community that is a piece of paradise in Brisbane’s bayside. Allana has lived in Wynnum with her husband, dog, cat and (sometimes) granddog since 2016. She fell in love with the stunning sunrises, gets excited by a good bargain in the op shops, and enjoys the easy nature and friendliness of the local people. Feeling like the Wynnum area is in a transition stage, with an eclectic mix of old and new, Allana wants to dig deeper into the incredible women who are part of the community she loves. The Traditional Owners of the Wynnum Manly area are the Quandamooka People. They have lived on the lands and seas surrounding Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) for at least 21,000 years.

Getting through a book a week, you could say that I love to read. So, it was fascinating to sit down and chat with Rachel Sweasey, who has just written her first novel. Rachel was really open to talking about the process of writing for her, and how the storyline of her book came to be. I enjoyed listening to all the different life experiences and jobs she has had gave her the skills and confidence to write 80,000 words!
Rachel's book is currently in the hands of an agent, but I am looking forward to reading it when it is published. You can follow Rachel on Facebook by searching @rachelsweaseyauthor.
