Biography

I've been a high school English/history teacher and educational editor (bus driver, cook, strawberry picker, insurance clerk, courier driver, shop worker, etc.). In the year of Covid I was a student again, completing a Grad Dip of Creative Writing in Wellington NZ, and writing a YA novel for that course.
