Avril Tremayne became a writer via careers in shoe-selling, nursing, teaching and public relations.

Along the way, she studied acting, singing, pottery, oil painting, millinery, German and Arabic (among other things).

A committed urbanite, her favourite stories are fast-paced contemporary city stories told with sass and humour.

Married with one daughter, Avril lives in Sydney, Australia.

When not writing or reading, she’s thinking about food, wine and shoes.
