My Bio
|
That is me on the left, and my twin sister Anna on the right.
We were born in 1973 in Camperdown, a small country town. By the age of four we moved to Melbourne, where we still live today. I am very close with my sister and family, and in 1998 Anna and I represented Australia at the World Precision Ice Skating Championships in Bordeaux, France.
I have always been interested in photography, and my dad, Rob, has provided great encouragement in this regard, so expect more advanced photography in my future books.
I have been married to Mick, a policeman, for 5 years and we currently live in Melbourne with our two Burmilla's, Billy and Jazz.
One day I would love to move back to the country, but for now, Melbourne is home.

Things I Don't Mind The World Knowing
|
Spoiler alert: I'm thinking my next book will be about... |
|
my family, or a place that means a lot to me. |
|
Everyone needs to know about these authors and artists... |
|
Author Wally Lamb who penned my favorite book of all time I Know This Much Is True, photographers Ansell Adams, and Long Thanh. I was lucky enough to meet Long Thanh, who specializes in black and white photography of Vietnamese life on a recent visit to Vietnam. He is kept in supplies so he can keep doing what he does best by overseas admirers. |

This book is addictive. Read it. (At your own risk.) |
|
I Know This Much Is True by Wally Lamb. It is a long book, approx 1000 pages and I became so attached to the characters that when I read the final page, I felt they had slammed the door on me forever. I can always read it again! |
