Authors: Cate Kendall
Michelle Hamer and Lisa Blundell each have four children, one husband and assorted pets, including a rabbit, blue-tongue lizard, turtle, cat and dog. Lisa sometimes even has koalas in her backyard, but Michelle thinks that may be taking the notion of a tree-change too far.
As with the characters in their book, both women have been Reading Mums; they sometimes get caught up in Carpark Mafia gossip, but they have never been Mothers Superior – well, not on purpose anyway.
Michelle and Lisa take shopping very seriously – whether it’s at a posh boutique or the local St Vinnies. They both appreciate the importance of a well-brewed latte and don’t mind being Gucci Mamas every now and then, as long as they can get home and pull on their trakkies afterwards.
Michelle is a prolific freelance journalist who has written for newspapers and magazines such as
The Age
and
FHM
for the past twenty years. She is also the author of three non-fiction books published in four countries.
Lisa comes from a varied media and advertising background that included doing voice-over work, advertising and copywriting.
