I am an author, educator and entomologist writing fantasy, science fiction, poetry and non-fiction for children and adults. My award-winning short stories have most recently appeared in the magazines Aurealis and The Fabulist, and in the anthologies Magic Portals, Aftermath and Alternative Deathiness. I've published fifteen books, including a series of middle grade fantasy novels infested with dragons, two lighthearted urban fantasies, an epic YA fantasy series, a book of poetry, and some rather more serious non-fiction about insects. I live and work in Aotearoa New Zealand.
