Ellanda Joyce studied politics, English and sociology at uni, and wrote an honours thesis on Christian responses to cultural shifts in Australia. Now she reads and writes about spirituality, politics, faith and culture, as well as reading a good dose of fiction. Ellanda is the assistant manager at The Wandering Bookseller, which involves lots of logistics planning, marketing and listening to Karl deliver unsolicited lectures on church history and comparative theology.

Karl Grice has been connecting books with people—and people with books—since the turn of the century. He started The Wandering Bookseller to provide hand-picked bookstalls for Christian events across Australia. Karl also curates an indie bookshop in Katoomba with board games, second-hand chairs, and a piano hidden upstairs. He has studied church history, politics and law. Since the start of the pandemic, Karl has spent his nights writing poetry as a poor substitute for sleep.
