Jacqx Melilli - Author and Storytelling Facilitator
Specialising in True Stories
Jacqx believes true stories can be more incredible than fiction. They have the power to inspire, connect people and change lives.
Jacqx was inspired to write her debut novel, When The Glitter Fades, after meeting a lady with an incredible story that she felt needed to be preserved as part of Australian showbiz history. Although partially based on true events, the story has been fictionalised to unveil a world where spectacular performances mask a dark underbelly filled with secrets, danger, and unexpected twists.
When The Glitter Fades is a generational saga, love triangle revenge story centred around vaudeville and circus performers set pre and post the Great Depression.
Jacqx mission is to leave a legacy of storytelling and help others tell their stories through her specially tailored workshops.
