Story Factory is a not-for-profit creative writing center that engages hundreds of young people in under-resourced communities across Sydney and NSW every year. 

They are a champion for young writers and as a program that values emerging audio creators, we are so excited about this partnership! 

In this episode, you’ll hear an eclectic mix of prose and poetry - from love-song mashups to tender reflections on personal identity. From tales of the sparkling vista of Rio de Janeiro, to the buzzing LED-lights of nightclub bathrooms.

The readings took place at Story Factory Parramatta in October 2023. You'll hear:

Antoinette Luu - “Dinner Talk”

Hayden Field - “Consumed” 

Christos Floratos -  'Body of Water' and 'Kookaburras'

Aamina Musthafa - “Let Me Be”

Saarah Gierdien - “Love songs”

Israa Merhi - “Generational Ingredients"

Annabella Luu - “After Sounds”

Bea - “DJs had us falling”

Atoc Malou - “Rio de Janeiro”

Isaiah T Soares - “Cabramatta House"

Interview with Richard Short - Storyteller-In-Chief, Story Factory
