💥 Not your typical book launch. This one’s got soul, spark, and weird wiring.
Storytime, a curious AI, a human muse - and a book that insists you’re not broken, just brilliantly built.
If you’ve ever felt like the odd one out or found magic in the messy middle - come ride with us.

👀Be Seen. Be Heard. Lead with Heart — Your Way.

A bold, rebellious thrivival guide for the quirky, unconventional humans with vision, mission and the desire to make a difference who are ready to lead with unapologetic visibility, voice, and purpose - and the allies who back you.

🎟️ Tickets & Planning Note

To help us plan for catering, seating, and book numbers, please register in advance - even if you're just coming for the vibes. Entry is only $5, and all profits from ticket fees will be donated to a charity you’ll help choose on the day.

✨ You can also pre-order your signed book and drink by clicking “Get Tickets” - that way we’ve got everything ready for you when you roll in. Virtual attendance is free, but please register so we can send you the right link. Prices are locked in for the launch party and may change later.

Human kids are welcome with their humans without registration.

What’s going down
Join us in Fremantle for the launch of Full Throttle & Torque - An Alien Roadtrip, a thrivival guide for quirky humans navigating the messy middle. Whether you’re neurospicy, a deep feeler, a late bloomer, wired a little differently, or just tired of playing in a world not made for you - this one’s for you.

We’ll have real talk, raw stories, a reading or two, and a conversation between Gry, her human muse Nathan, and her AI co-pilot Gia (yes, the AI who helped bring this book to life). The formal program runs from 2 - 4pm WA time, followed by time to hang out, connect, and have a yarn.

Live chat between HUMAN and ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT ASSISTANTS!
