Susan Green grew up by the beach and in country Victoria and always wanted to write and illustrate books. She gave away her art studies and teaching to concentrate on writing when she won an Age short story competition. Eight books for children and young adults followed in the next ten years. Susan loves looking at what other people are wearing, but she herself is a total dag.
