SJ Butler

S. J. Butler was born in London, England, and grew up writing poetry in the Essex countryside. She always loved writing. By age ten she was turning out science fiction stories with a readership of one – herself; and around age 15 found she had a talent for writing angst-filled poetry in dark places on a cheap blue typewriter. After leaving school she turned down a place at university and instead bought a ticket to Australia for £75, courtesy of the Australian Government. She planned to hang out in Australia for two years before returning to England and uni. But she met and married her husband in Australia shortly after arriving in Australia and the return trip didn’t eventuate. After raising three children, working in the fields of education and human resources management, and sitting in more cold basketball stadiums than she cares to remember, S. J. Butler graduated from university in her fifties but her dream was always to become a published author. A Very British Disaster is the realisation of that dream. She lives with her husband and their couch-buddy, Rusty, near Canberra
