A Recap of 2017
2017 was a huge year for me. I released six books: four picture books and two novels. I traveled across Australia visiting preschools, schools, libraries, writers' centres and festivals talking about books and literacy and teaching writing skills to children and adults. Two highlights were chairing a panel discussion at the AATE/ALEA National Conference in Hobart about women in literature and speaking at Bundaberg WriteFest. I was also lucky enough to travel to America and Thailand to present at conferences and festivals. Both were huge eye-openers for me and amazing learning experiences.
In between it all, I finished two novel manuscripts and had two picture book manuscripts contracted. As the year draws to a close, I'm now starting to work on a new junior fiction series and an historical novel. To check out some of the highlights of my year, please click on the video link below.
