Author Information
Rebecca Alasdair lives in Melbourne, Australia and has been writing from the moment she learned to hold a pencil. Public sector worker by day, teller of stories by night, she loves dogs, coffee, and researching everything under the sun. When she's not carving out time for her authorly pursuits, she can be found reading until the dawn light peeks through the curtains, reorganising her rainbow-coloured bookshelves, or tending to her many, many plant children.
