Please use this form to contact me for anything in regard to my books!
before you email me, please check these Frequently Asked Questions…
Can I book you to visit our school/fete/library/etc?
Presently, no - I truly am very sorry! I also don’t live in Canberra anymore - if you are asking me about BookWeek. I work full-time. If you send me an email requesting this, I will simply reply with the same response. Please also remember, if you are booking an author for a visit, you need to pay them. It’s polite, and supports the Arts (mostly unpaid!)
I am looking to translate your book The Blue Polar Bear or The Flying Dream into another language, to use in another country. Can I do that?
That’s awesome! Please contact the NSW Department of Family Services and ask for the Publications Department, or Media, or the Resource Centre. It can be really hard getting hold of someone there, due to the nature of this department. They own the copyright (but if I did, I would say yes!)
Do you have any copies of The Blue Polar Bear or The Flying Dream left?
No, but I really wish I did. You can sometimes find a copy on eBay - there were 40,000 of them printed so it happens often! You can read them for free online through my website.
Can I buy books direct from you?
I don’t keep stock of my titles unfortunately - but if you want a book signed, you can message me, and post me your book with a return post envelope and I will write a lovely message to your gift recipient.
Is your name really TIDY?
Yes, it really is. It’s the name I was born with and yes, you pronounce it just like tidy as in neat and clean.
And are you … TIDY?
Yes!
