An event that embraces diverse, sex-positive, and inclusive stories. True tales or pure fantasy, we want to hear them all.
Whether you’re a storyteller or a listener, this event is open to all who appreciate a good bedtime story with a twist.
Participants are encouraged to create an atmosphere of respect, consent, non-judgment and fun!
Your Host:
‘A Kink in the Tale’ is the brainchild of Central Coast based writer, singer and storyteller, Donné Restom.
Long time lover of eroticism, irreverance, and saying out loud the things that make you blush, Donné was the sex advice columnist for Ralf magazine’s horny teens in her twenties, and the sex writer for the confused and exhausted mums of Kidspot in her thirties. She is the host of Words on the Waves’ ‘Late Night Lit’, and her erotic blueprint is The Shapeshifter: Loves all the sex, all time, all the ways, with all the people. And yes, she has the stories to prove it.
