Episode 18 - Moya Sayer Jones, Little Sister

For almost twenty years, Moya Sayer Jones wrote comedy for TV, print and theatre, too much to mention here, but including Ferals, Bananas in Pyjamas and Petals. She’s also the author of four fiction books.

But it was when she wrote her first non fiction book, a collection of stories about families suffering disadvantage, that her career took another turn and Moya founded Only Human Stories.

We talked about growing up as the youngest of four sisters, her early adventures in writing and cycling through Europe, playing at the Edinborough Fringe, and lots about story and the great power it brings to us as businesses, but also as individuals.

Enjoy the articulate, learned and very fun Moya Sayer Jones.
