Brumbies in the Mountains was inspired by my years of riding in endurance events, and from my love of Australia's wild horses. The various issues associated with allowing brumbies the free run of our national parks are raised in this book too.

Up until now, my ideas have come from my own experiences. Now that I have ventured into fantasy, those ideas incorporate my dreams too.

Having just had the fifth and final book in the Brumbies series published, Brumbies in the Mountains, I wanted something for my readers to go on to. So, I am creating an exciting horse fantasy series for young adults.

Read, read, read, write, write, write. Remember, the definition of a writer is someone who writes. It doesn't have to be the best literature ever recorded. Don't stare at a blank page. It is easier to change words already written than come up with them in the first place.

I rarely suffer from writer's block, but if the words fail to come, I do something physical for a while, like go for a walk.
