Stories from the Shed

Memoirs, anecdotes and life stories written by members of the Mount Gravatt Men’s Shed community.

The goal of Stories from the Shed is to document and share the notable and diverse lived experiences — and lessons in life — of members of the Shed. They’re reflective in nature and a useful stimulus for exploring personal writing.

The stories offer a chance to engage with the experiences of members of the local Brisbane community. They may resonate, build understanding, or help readers connect the storyteller’s ideas and lessons with their own lives and families.

The project grew out of the Shed’s Writers Group, which helps members with stories to tell but limited means to publish them.
