Autorenporträt
Hi...here's my literary boastfest: I'm a twice-published author - a memoir in 2010 (Sheer Madness; sex, lies and politics), and a novel in 2012 (Goodbye Lullaby) - (Harlequin MIRA). My memoir hit the SMH's Top Ten list and was a best-seller. I'm a graduate of Robert McKee's Screenwriting seminars in NY; various courses offered by the NSW Writers Center, and a comprehensive novel-writing course via the Faber Writing Academy in Sydney. I teach creative writing and have written a booklet on what I consider the essential writer's tools, "Write Now!".
