OUR LITERARY PATRONS

Our Literary Patrons are some of our authors, past and present. They have written their stories, seen them in print, and felt first hand the value of words that can be held and passed on.

​

But they are more than women who had their words printed in a book. They are women who champion other women writing their stories too, and who truly see the value in what it means to have written our own.

​

They are mothers, grandmothers, daughters and sisters. Some are therapists, teachers, doulas, coaches and circle holders. Others are business owners, stay-at-home mothers, retired corporate women, and some had never published anything before.

 

From their thirties to their eighties, they have written their stories from kitchen tables and sofas, beds and desks across the world.

​

In a publishing world where women’s stories are so often chosen or declined on their financial return, our Patrons believe every woman’s story deserves to be told, simply because she lived it.

​

The Literary Patron badge

​

Each Patron is invited to carry the Literary Patron badge on her website and socials, as a way to talk about her chapter and her love of supporting women’s stories.

TARA PAONESSA

"When Lynette says to me, 'Tara, would you like to...', my answer tends to be YES before she's got to the end of her sentence. That's the experience of writing with Lynette - it's so safe, that's where expansion comes from, that's where growth comes from"
