AUTHOR: Hailing from Melbourne, Australia, I spent my youth overindulging in Mad Magazine, Monty Python, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which left me with a slightly skewed view of the world. As a result, I've written numerous comedy sketches for both live theatre and radio, as well as several attempts at the great Australian sitcom. However, it is in books that I believe I've found my true calling. There's nothing I enjoy more than creating stories for children, and for the child in all of us - stories that I hope will make people laugh and think, and add a smile to their day. In addition to my children's stories, I've also written several humorous novels and novellas, one of which was a semi-finalist in the 2011 Goodreads Choice Awards.
