Annie Seaton lives near the beach on the mid-north coast of New South Wales. Her career and studies have spanned the education sector, working as an academic research librarian, a high-school principal, and a university tutor until she took early retirement and fulfilled her lifelong dream of a full-time writing career.Each winter, Annie and her husband leave the beach to roam the remote areas of Australia for story ideas and research. She is passionate about preserving the beauty of the Australian landscape and respecting the traditional ownership of the land. For those readers who cannot experience this journey personally, Annie seeks to portray the natural beauty of the Australian environment-its spiritual locations, stunning landscapes and unique wildlife.A few years ago, on their way to the East Kimberleys, they stopped at Mitchell and then had a tyre repaired at Augathella. As they drove along the back roads, Annie was inspired to write a book about a city girl who came out as a nanny.The inspiration for the Augathella Girls series was born at that moment. Readers can view her many books and contact Annie through her website, annieseaton.net, or find her on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.http: //www.annieseaton.net/store.html
