Marie Thom is a big knickers wearer, frantic chin plucker, gin lover and muffin-top fighter who worships at the altar of the incontinence liner. She draws her eyebrows in which are balding at an alarming rate, along with her nether regions. She doesn’t draw those in because that would be just plain weird. She writes the Facebook page Midlife Dramas in Pyjamas and has written articles for Good Housekeeping, Best, Good Housekeeping online and Menopause Life Magazine. She has been interviewed on BBC Radio Newcastle and appeared as a guest on the podcast Message in the Middle. Marie regularly speaks to women’s groups and in September she will be appearing on the Live Stage with her funny poems, at Pause Live in London. Her followers love her down-to-earth approach to life, along with her searing honesty about both the menopause and herself.Find Marie over at https://www.facebook.com/midlifedramasinpyjamasYvonne Vincent is the bestselling author of The Big Blue Jobbie and the Losers Club series, the midlife brainfart behind the Growing Old Disgracefully blog on Facebook and the proud owner of an inch long eyebrow hair that mysteriously appears overnight. She wanted her superpower to be the ability to cram six Jaffa cakes into her mouth at once, but got the bionic eyebrow hair instead. Two years and five months after publishing her first book, Yvonne walked away from her nice, safe job to write full time. It was scary and she had to push past a lot of self-doubt. She thought about all the wonderful people who had said “you can” to her - listening to them had worked before, so why not listen again? She wants to pay that forward to other midlife and older women - even though age and life may strip our confidence or sometimes make us feel like the swamp beast from hell, our superpower really is each other and We Can.
