Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m an Australian author, with a background in Positive Psychology. I have one book on the shelf but another two ready for release in 2017.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
‘Finding Your Path – A guide to life & happiness after school’ is my first book. It was inspired by my own transition into life after school and not feeling there was any guide book out there for me to make the decision around what was next.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I like to mix up where I write – from cafes, to the pool, to random cafes. I like the variety.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Elizabeth Gilbert ‘Big Magic’, Jessica Hagy ‘How to be interesting’, Austin Kleon ‘Show your work’ & Anthea Paul ‘Girlosophy’.
What are you working on now?
Another addition to the Finding Your Path series – transitioning into being an expat.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Instagram – having fun with interacting with people and telling the books story.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
If you have an idea you want to share – just do it. People will judge it obviously, but if you believe that’s the only thing that really matters.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Your book will never be perfect!
What are you reading now?
‘Limiting Beliefs’ – Ruth Logan
What’s next for you as a writer?
To keep writing projects about transitions that I believe will be useful and inspiring.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
The four I mentioned above that inspired my writing. I would have to take these in gratitude of where they’ve got me.
