Testimonials:

“If books were hugs, ‘You'll be a Wonderful Parent’ would be the kind of embrace that queer people give one another when they want to say, 'You are amazing, precious and loved, exactly as you are'. We are immensely grateful to Jasper for sharing this book with audiences at our festival events and speaking eloquently about the strength and joy of family and community.

Jasper Peach writes like it matters. Like Maggie Nelson, Jasper reminds us that it is possible to make a damaged world beautiful, to hold pain and love with equal tenderness.”

Kate Hall, Q-Lit Festival Director

“Jasper Peach as a host/mc is as delightful as the fruit which shares their name. You could tell Jasper had done their homework with hilarious rehearsed bits intersected with off the cuff remarks and self deprecatory gags that really hit the target demographic.

Jasper’s writing skills were really on show all evening but especially during the acknowledgement of country that was personal, respectful, heartfelt and local to our community; an inspiring call to action. Jasper, can I hire you to announce me into my kitchen everyday?!? I’ll contact Jasper later (and you should too!)”

Annabelle Tunley, Head of fundraising committee

“Jasper was a delight to work with as the chair of our panel event at Bendigo Writers Festival. Empathic, prepared and professional. Highly recommend. “

Sam Elkin, Event Producer

”Jasper is a gem of a human. While launching my book, they held the space in a perfect balance of celebration, acknowledgement and community. Jasper's preparation was above-and-beyond and their delivery was immaculate. I feel so lucky to have had Jasper in such a central moment of my experience as an author.”
