BIO:

Katie M Little is a writer, comedian, singer and stage mother - her work has been published in Adbusters, her style compared to memoirist heavyweight Clive James, and acclaimed philosopher Daniel Pinchbeck once commended her blog as ‘similar to my own thinking’.  She writes about the precarious mental balancing act of living in the Anthropocene and promises after reading her stuff, ‘you’ll start to feel better about life, either that or you won’t feel quite so alone’. She uses black humour to cut through people’s preconceived ideas and loves challenging accepted norms of behaviour.  Katie lives in Hunters Hill, Sydney, Australia with her three children – Tom Poulton, La La and Hunter and is grateful they are nearly all old enough to understand sarcasm. Occasionally she also lives with her husband, landscape photographer Timothy Poulton, but they keep their laundry separate.  Like her mother Australian icon Jeanne Little who inherited the family ‘gift’ for tea leaf reading, Katie is obsessed with numerology which she has nicknamed ‘human sudoku’, and moonlights as a tarot reader in her spare time
