Autorenporträt
Born 1976. Spent some time in the USA. Then grew up in Caringbah, The Sutherland Shire, and will never apologise for it. I've been writing since the age of seven. Most of my earlier works plagiarised films, such as Mad Max and Superman (ironic, I know). For many years I wrote for others, so it's refreshing to be able to craft stories around things that interest me. The writing I'm currently doing is focused on my old stomping ground - The Shire and is mostly set in the '80s and '90s. For me, place and how it shapes you as a person is what interests me most. I'm a surfer, so being in the ocean with some swell and offshore wind is magic. I love surfboards and have quite the collection of eclectic craft. I play in a band, 'Salty'. We're pretty big in Japan. I play guitar, banjo, banjolele, kazoo, and do the occasional vocal spot. If I'm not surfing, rehearsing, or writing, I'm raising four kids. Actually, they're raising me. I'm also a full-time teacher. Once upon a time, I used to play video games and watch moving pictures on a screen - I think it was called television. I currently reside in the Illawarra.
