Two sisters. Both Deaf. One who signs and one who doesn't. It's all very well, until one of them introduces her boyfriend to the other...
I was born and grew up in France, where I developed a love for language, literature, and good food. In my early thirties I moved to Australia where I am based now.
I am an agricultural economist and a linguist by education, and a management consultant by trade. However, my passion for writing and literature led me to more creative endeavours...
I started by writing short plays. Having studied acting in Sydney and in Paris, it just seemed a natural extension of performing on stage. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to continue. The rest is history, as we say... I write in both English and French. One of my plays, My Sister's Choice, also makes extensive use of sign language.
I have published two novels, The Wings of Leo Spencer, and Body Swap, and three plays, My Sister's Choice, The Birthday Knife and Guys, Only Guys! I have written two full-length plays and a large number of short plays, which have been produced in America, Australia, the UK, Singapore and Malaysia. Some of them have won prizes. I have also written and published (mostly online) a large number of articles related to the issue of rare diseases, research and patients, translated in many languages throughout Europe. My writing credits also include an award-winning short story and a radio play.
I'm currently working on a thriller which will take place in Hong Kong,and fumy next nove, (in French), Metaphore du Rapide, will be published in February 2011.
