Marion is an Australian writer based in Melbourne. She spent many years studying and working in non-writerly pursuits before writing her autobiography from the point of view of her ten-year-old self while studying creative writing.
While this book never made it past the top drawer of her filing cabinet it did lead to the publication of her first children’s novel, Sunny Side Up. Since then she has written two more novels for young readers and a YA crime thriller co-authored with Kim Kane.
Marion was a creative child who always followed her curiosities and explored diverse interests. This earned her the title ‘flibbertigibbet’ growing up although these days she prefers the more flattering descriptor …Multipotentialite.
Marion is known for her keen observation, first-person character voice and sharp dialogue, driving a narrative style that is original, compelling and highly relatable.
