E120 - Angela Greensill - Pandemic Affected Comedian Turned Children’s Author

What can I tell you about this week's guest …..

Angela is a seasoned performer with 3 Melbourne Comedy Festival Solo Shows under her belt. She has been a support act for many of the big names of comedy and she was a finalist in the Kings of Comedy contest and a preliminary finalist in Melbourne in the Raw Comedy contest. More recently she has been a writer for, ‘Mainland Tonight’, and ‘Pitch’.  Angela is known for her razor-sharp wit and has been pleasing audiences in all the best venues in Melbourne.

Angela has a rare auto-immune condition, so when covid hit she had to lay low until they found a vaccine. It gave Angela a chance to focus on writing. Rather than her usual comedy writing, Angela enjoyed where her brain went when writing for children. Angela first started writing funny little stories for her niece but soon realized there was a bigger audience for her stories. Angela’s main aim as an author is for children to laugh while they learn. Angela grew up on a farm in regional Queensland and this experience flavours her writing for a unique storytelling experience. The innocence of simpler times. She found it soothing while the world seemed to be going insane.

During the first year, she published 4 illustrated children’s books and her books are getting rave reviews on Amazon and are beautifully illustrated using the latest in digital technology.

Angela’s books are perfect for parents who want to feel good about their choices and for children who love a good story. Your child will ask for them again and again and, sometimes, that will be a good thing.
