BIO:
I am a librarian/archivist, author and editor with a love of history. I write fiction and non-fiction for adults and children. Four of my books have been short- or long-listed for literary awards. Most recently, my ‘Ship of Death: the tragedy of “The Emigrant”‘ was shortlisted for the 2021 Frank Broeze Memorial Maritime History Book Prize. My non-fiction ‘Captain Thunderbolt’ was shortlisted for an ABIA in 2015, ‘Shoot-out at the rock’ (the first book in my children’s historical fiction series ‘Tommy Bell, Bushranger Boy’) was on the Children’s Book Council of Australia’s ‘notable’ list of 2017, and ‘The Runaway’ was shortlisted for a Speech Pathology Book of the Year Award in 2019. I enjoy public speaking and have experience in talking to groups of children and adults.

Entry is $10 for members and $15 for non-members
