I am a successful novelist (IN AND OUT OF STEP, LIFE SONG, SONG), a screenwriter, a composer, and a regular contributor to local newspaper. My novels and screenplays focus on female-centric stories respectful to women and the lives they lead and break from traditional female stereotypes and roles preferred by the industry influencers for past decades. Instead, my writing depicts diverse female and male characters with depth, realism, and relatability.
An Australian, I lived in the United States for three years in the 1990s when I accompanied my husband on his posting to the USA. I now live in rural New South Wales just north of Canberra.
