about this author
Louise Cusack is an Australian award winning author whose best-selling "Shadow through Time" fantasy trilogy with Simon & Schuster was selected by the Doubleday Book Club as their ‘Editors Choice’. This trilogy will be released digitally by Momentum Books in 2012.
As well as writing novels, Louise has been a Writer in Residence at the Queensland Writers Centre and has tutored hundreds of writing workshops at the QWC, the NSW Writers Centre, and libraries and schools in Brisbane and regional Queensland.
In 2006 she presented the Queensland Government’s Queensland Writing Showcase to top New York speculative fiction agents and publishers at the very swanky 21 Club!
She's worked with a production company to develop a computer game for children which unfortunately didn’t get off the ground, and in 2009 attended the South Australian Film Commission Crossover think tank in Adelaide to create cross-media ideas and develop projects.
Louise is currently writing two fantasy novels while on leave from a Research Masters in Speculative Fiction at QUT. She ran away from home to a gorgeous seaside village at the southern tip of the Great Barrier reef where she eats delicious local produce (the strawberries are divine!), listens to the ocean and writes up a storm. Literally!
