Autorenporträt
My dedication to writing continues with a ferocious passion. My laptop and I have developed a special relationship that only my poor husband can truly appreciate. I've found wonderful fiction and scriptwriters' groups through my membership with the Katharine Susannah Prichard Writers' Centre and developed a tremendously supportive network of fellow writers. In 2017, The Pinstripe Prisoner began to place in writing competitions and several poems and short stories were accepted for publication. I was lucky enough to be signed by The Newman Agency - for any writer, that moment of securing agent representation is unforgettable! The 2019 launch of Graffiti Lane, my debut poetry collection, took my writing career to new heights as it hit the Number 1 poetry bestseller spot on Amazon in the UK and Australia. It's been a privilege to leverage the platform this has provided, particularly in promoting antibullying initiatives within the youth community. You will regularly find me hanging out on the open mic at slams, sharing messages of social injustice. Graffiti Lane showcased at the London Book Fair and was gifted to Australian Gold Logie Award Nominees as well as Hollywood celebrities including Ellen DeGeneres, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Aniston, The Kardashians, J-Lo, and Megan Fox. Graffiti Lane was also presented to 2020 Oscar Winners and Nominees, featuring on the celebrity news segment on CBS KCAL TV, LA. My second poetry book, Punch and Judy, focuses on a turbulent relationship and domestic violence It was released in August 2020 with MMH Press and achieved #1 bestseller position same day. Rolling in the Mud, my short story collection, is scheduled for release in 2020 via Ginninderra Press. My novel, The Pinstripe Prisoner, is scheduled for release in 2021 with Serenity Press. I'm grateful to have been awarded a First Edition Fellowship through Katharine Susannah Pritchard Writers' Centre funded by the Western Australian Department of Local Government, Sports and Cultural Industries and Lotterywest. I'm also a double Roar Success Award winner for Best Book (Graffiti Lane) and Most Powerful Influencer and am incredibly proud to be the winner of the AusMumpreneur Big Idea (Changing the World) Award for my work using the written, spoken, and visual word to generate awareness and change around social issues such as bullying and domestic violence. My journey as a working class woman to where I am today has been magical and I'm looking forward to the unknown chapters ahead.
