Sarah Todman grew up in an outback Queensland pub surrounded by siblings (she has seven), and an ever-changing cast of colorful pub characters. It was an extraordinary childhood that gave her a love of people and their stories, as well as the ability to pour a perfect beer. She studied journalism at university, and in a writing career that now spans more than two decades, she has been a tabloid journalist, magazine editor, communications consultant, content writer, and creative entrepreneur. Sarah loves earl grey tea, books that make her cry, and music that makes her sing (even though she can’t). She lives in Brisbane with her husband and four children (because eight seemed like too much hard work). She has published two children’s books (Bab’s Mermaid Adventure and Bab’s Camping Adventure) and a collection of poetry (Notebook Heart). New Year’s Eve is her first novel. |
