Jo Newman

Portrait photograph of Jo Newman – a fair-skinned person who is seated in front of a pale brown background wearing a blue denim jacket over a maroon and yellow knit sweater, with eyeglasses and bright red shoulder-length hair cropped flat across its fringe. They are smiling widely and looking slightly to the side of the camera

Jo Newman is a chronically ill Yamatji writer from Boorloo (Perth). They’ve been writing since childhood, but have the attention span of a gnat, so they mostly write short memoir and flash fiction. When they’re not reading or writing, you can find Jo napping with their dog and cat, or re-watching their fave horror movies on Netflix.
