about this book: Down Outback Roads revisits the colourful and close-knit community of Glenalla that featured in Beneath Outback Skies. There will be familiar faces as well as quirky new characters and animals with plenty of personality. The drought has now broken but the bush community still has many challenges to face, least of all finding the missing backpacking brother of the heroine, Kree Garrett.
I'm a country girl and have always lived in remote or regional areas so it was natural my imagination played itself out against a rural backdrop. I love writing stories that encapsulate the rural way of life and that pay homage to the resilience of bush communities. I also love the strong heroines in the rural genre (no swooning allowed) and the way the landscape becomes a character in itself.
The small town of Glenalla, and the surrounding red earth countryside, is very much based on my local area. From bushranger murals, to an old Cobb and Co. coach station, to a tin hut standing alone and aloof in a canola crop, threads of the central west of NSW are woven into Down Outback Roads. I hope readers enjoy visiting Glenalla as much as I liked bringing this fictional town to life.
