My short story ‘Not in Mitchelton’ won the One Book Many Brisbanes short story competiton. As well as marvellous prize money, it will be published in the OBMB third anthology.

My book ‘Surviving Internet and Speed Dating’ has recently been published and is for sale on the Internet. I am the author of ‘Australia’s Invaders’, a two-part high school geography/earth science textbook. I was a professional editor for three and a half years and an English teacher for three years. Now I write, write, write.

I am passionate about writing, animals, health and healing, nature, creative control over my working life, my family, good food (especially cheese!), animal and environmental rights, enlightened thinking, comedies that make me feel good, joy and peace.

I have written a spiritual memoir about my time with my horse and am looking for a publisher! Currently, I am working on a contemporary Young Adult novel.
