Hi Everyone!
My name's Kelly, and I'm a New Zealander living in Australia. I've been writing since before I knew how to make my squiggles into actual words. It's the only thing I've ever really loved and wanted to do with my life.
In saying that, I did venture out into the real world in order to actually earn a few dollars. Before the Christchurch quakes, I worked as a high school English & Media Studies teacher, and loved every second of it. After moving to Australia with my family, I spent the past four years working as a Floor Manager/waitress at a dessert cafe, which was a lot of fun, and introduced me to some really interesting people - important for writing good characters I think.
I recently quit my day job to take up writing full time, and besides sometimes never getting dressed, and not seeing actual humans (other than my family) for weeks on end, I am loving it.
I signed up here in 2013, and then kind of dropped off the face of the earth, while I wrote my first novel. So now that it's in it's final stages, I finally have a little more time to breathe and I figured I'd start by re-introducing myself.
I write Young Adult fiction, with a focus on fantasy, fairy tales, dystopia and monsters. Big fan of zombies and werewolves in particular.
Looking forward to getting to know you better!
