Australian author, Deborah Disney, grew up in the regional city of Toowoomba and now lives in Brisbane with her husband and two school-aged daughters. Deborah has a BA/LLB from the University of Queensland and practised as a solicitor for a number of years prior to having children. She chose to specialise in litigation law as that seemed like the best preparation for what is now her looming battle - mothering her daughters through the teenage years. Deborah’s first novel, UP AND IN, is a satirical look at the interactions of school and sporting mums.
