About the Author

Despite a passion for writing, she studied Computer Science - but she quickly recovered.A change of lifestyle when she and her family moved to Canada resulted in her first novel, After Zoe. Living down the road from the SARS outbreak also provided the seed for An Ordinary Epidemic.Amanda lives a pleasant stroll from Coogee Beach in Sydney with her two computer-oriented sons and husband and two non-computer-oriented cats.
