My Life to Date [In five sentences]


My Life to date(In five sentences)
Incubated in the Western suburbs of Sydney with my five brothers, a menagerie, a fair helping of Cathahol and a dream woven of fiction books, cartoons, drawing trees and boy’s own adventures in all the elements. My teenage years were of angst, escapism and, above all, subterfuge. Newcastle from teens to late twenties was an epoch of chaos, a labyrinthine existence in which I tested my physical and psychological parameters, became a father and husband and a Huckleberry. And then nine years in the sticks and farms of greater New South Wales, where the schools accepted that I was a teacher and the first book, The Griefing, was completed. At the time of writing I am in Canberra, the nation’s capital, where I continue to teach and also get the sense I am waiting for something that will not be my immediate death.
