Background
Information
I live in a cottage by the sea in South Australia with hens, dogs, spiders, some very large cabbages and the sound of waves.
My favourite writers are anyone who can make me laugh. (And that's a lot!)

Accomplishments
In 2000, I won the Jill McDougall Award for the best new book by Jill McDougall. I have won this several times in a row now.
