BIO

Hey there!

Nice to have you here, at these exact coordinates.

I'm Dime, and this is the place where you can find out all my secrets.

(Boringly, I don't have any secrets. Sigh. So lame.)

But if I did have secrets, they would be here.

And there is a bunch of other stuff—book stuff, which is my favourite kind of stuff.

Enjoy :)

BOOKS

My debut novel, Crime Writer, was shortlisted for
the Daphne du Maurier Award for Excellence in Mystery/Suspense,
the Davitt Award for Best Crime Books by Australian Women and
the People's Choice Queensland Book of the Year Award.

It's sequel, Two Timer, is out now, and
Third Person is coming soon.
