Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
Born in Perth, Western Australia. I was ushered into the world in a decade of bad hair, parachute pants, and blue eye shadow. Fortunately, I managed to avoid all three influences by immersing herself in the business of growing up, and hitched a ride with my fun-loving and adventure-filled parents to the sunny state of Queensland. I currently reside in Cairns, procrastinate constantly, and try desperately to avoid the delicious temptation that is the peanut butter aisle at the supermarket. I have written six books, editing another while half way through yet another.
