Summary

Introduction

Catherine Cole is currently Professor of Creative Writing in the Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts, University of Wollongong, NSW, Australia. I loved to read and devoured books, which my little sister and I often acted out. I am grateful for my early introduction into the world of books and especially the young adult fiction by Australian writers like Ivan Southall, Nan Chauncy, and Ethel Turner who showed me how exciting my own country was. C.C.: I like to write in all forms because a single approach never seems to serve my ideas.
