I grew up in Melbourne, Australia and thank my parents and school teachers for encouraging my love of literature and history.
After graduating from business college, I worked in the dry world of ledgers and accounting, then joined the tide of Australians traveling to the UK for a working holiday. There, in front of me was the history I’d read about. I was hooked. Marriage and children came next, then back to work, which kept my urge to write on the backburner. On the point of retiring I changed course to accept a position as secretary for a large New South Wales, Historical Society. Now really retired I am finally indulging my love of writing and travelling.
