I'm a first year Arts student at the University of Ballarat, in Victoria, Australia. I used to live in Melbourne. I went to school with Anopheles' son, James, for three years. I only decided to start writing fiction in 2001, but I don't plan on stopping any time soon.

I like to read Terry Pratchett, Stephen Lawhead, John Marsden and Katherine Applegate; and don't care if people think I'm shallow. As well as writing, I like drawing, listening to music (U2, The Living End, The Specials), pretending to sing and pretending to play touch football. Oh, and I have a website.
