About this listen
In this fortnight's episode, Gyles and Aphra Brandreth sit down with Betty S. Chapau, a writer from Manus Province in Papua New Guinea, to discuss her journey of blending storytelling with her cultural roots. With a background in engineering, Betty shares how her Pacific Island heritage and childhood surrounded by traditional stories inspired her to write. She talks about her first published essay, "Harim Mi," featured in the My Walk to Equality anthology in 2017, and her recent poem, “A Love Letter,” published in Pasefika Presence in 2023. Now a full-time mother, Betty runs her own writing website, Pihindras, where she continues to keep her culture alive through her words.
