And, in an update, I’m thrilled to announce that Peculiar Parents won the ACT Literary Award 2026 for Children’s Nonfiction. Happy author!

Delighted to see that Peculiar Parents has been shortlisted for the ACT Literary Awards 2026. A big thankyou to MARION Writers Centre and the judges, and also to super-talented illustrator Ingrid Bartkowiak, and Lauren Smith and the fabulous team at NLA Publishing. And congratulations to all the other shortlistees!
