I’m a full-time Cancer Physician, born in the UK and moved to Brisbane, Australia in 2004. My professional writing credits include over 200 publications including peer-reviewed research papers, journals, book chapters, conference contributions and electronic outputs in the field of Cancer Research. I’ve always loved sci-fi and dreamed about being an author in this genre as long as I can remember. My reading faves include ‘old school’ legends such as Arthur C. Clarke, Isaac Asimov, Dan Simmons and Frank Herbert, but I devour almost everything by Alastair Reynolds. Is there any better literary Sci-Fi universe than the Revelation Space?! Also, every time I’m on vacation I re-read one of Lee Child’s Reacher novels, just to immerse myself in that fabulous character’s mind and world. It may be a cliché, but yes, I am a Star Wars, Marvel and Tolkien tragic, so if not working or reading or writing, you’ll find me rewatching these movies and trying to out-quote my two daughters (I usually don’t win). I love great TV Sci-Fi too … Stranger Things, Foundation, For All Mankind … so many more! There really aren’t enough hours in the day, and I have to fit in a bike ride as well to keep body and mind on the same page.
