Alison began writing as a teenager, hiding away in the school library during lunch to work on her stories. None of these projects ever made it beyond the first few chapters as other interests took over.

During her final year of high school, Alison joined the Australian Army Reserve and went on to serve in the Royal Australian Air Force.

A fan of motorsport, Alison follows the V8 Supercars, Formula 1, and MotoGP, and loves to attend local motorsport events. As well as being a self-confessed stationery junkie, she also likes spending time at the local Botanical Gardens.

Alison is married with three children and lives in Tasmania, Australia.
