About the authors
💘 Olivia Tolich is an author based in Melbourne (Naarm). She works as an educational publisher and has a dog named Poppy who really hates that her human’s main interest involves sitting around staring at a computer. Side Character Energy is her first novel.

💘 Bridie Blake lives and writes in Melbourne. She is a self-confessed daydreamer and consumer of reality TV who can sniff out chocolate like a bloodhound and will never turn down a coffee or an opportunity to listen to Taylor Swift.

Dymocks will be selling copies of both Bridie's and Olivia's books at the event.
