I had the pleasure of meeting Ryan at the Mumbrella Publish Awards in Sydney and found his hilarious musings about Wordle - and the fact that his days, and the time he gets out of bed are dictated by it - simply hilarious. He is a funny guy.
Ryan is an editor with Galah magazine. The team took out the Best Publisher on that night, beating Australian stalwarts Women's Weekly, InStyle and others.
He complies a brilliant Monday-morning newsletter, Galah Weekly which is free. I love it, you should all sign up too at galahpress.com - to add - there is another personal newsletter from Ryan, Out of Office on Substack. ryanbutta.substack.com
His book The Ballad of Abdul Wade from all good bookstores or here at Booktopia.
