edit data

Ella Ward has worked in advertising for twenty years. This means she has a proclivity for profanity and doesn’t respect punctuation.
In 2018 she was hit with the cancer stick, which apart from being rather frightening also encouraged a foray into oversharing on Instagram, and then – magically – writing.
Her words have been published in places like Frankie, Lunch Lady, The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.
Ella lives in Melbourne, Australia, with her husband, child, dog, cat and many (many) neuroses.
She’s also writing this about herself in the third person, which she acknowledges is both pretentious and a bit weird.
