Who are we?Stacey Broadbent |
Allie
Allie lives in Christchurch, New Zealand with her husband and two children. She has been a lover of books from a very young age, and found her love for books again after Love and other words by Christina Lauren caught her eye at a shop back in 2022. From there the addiction took over and Allie is on her way to building her own personal Library. In 2023 she decided to gather up the book lovers of Christchurch and begin bookish meet ups with others who share the love and passion for reading like her which led her to organising book retreats with Emma. Being part of the WBAJ team for Allie is all about bringing like minded people together to share their love for books and literature while also discovering new and amazing authors from far and wide! |
Emma
A busy mum of two young girls Emma finds sanity in between pages in her hometown of Christchurch New Zealand. A lover of all things gothic fiction, fantasy, horror, dark romance, witchy and strong female leads. Being part of WBAJ is a very exciting opportunity to discover, share and support local authors (including our trans-Tasman neighbours) and their art - and meeting the individuals who share the same love. |
Dani
I'm Dani, a pet mum to many pets. I work as an Early Childhood Teacher and help volunteer for Kitty Haven and Word Christchurch. I love to give back to the community. I am excited to be a part of helping because books and supporting authors and events like this are something that I am passionate about and brings me so much joy. I enjoy reading horror, detective novels, reverse harem, thriller, fantasy, murder mystery, and cosy mystery. |
