She has written for newspapers such as The Age (Melbourne) and The Australian, for various technology and records management magazines, for 'mainstream' magazines such as TV Week, and the web-based Melbourne Garden Guide.
She edited the Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Fan Resource Book (1995) and contributed to the MUP Encyclopedia of Science Fiction and Fantasy.
Her work history includes such diverse professions as business analyst, bouncer, I.T. manager, trainer of trainers, courseware developer, bodyguard, freelance journalist, photographer and artist, and she put herself through high school working as a shop assistant, office cleaner and legal secretary. Basically, a very linear career, but typical for a writer.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Horses that defecate on Melbourne streets and the people who think that's cute. Photographers who get between me and the subject I'm already setting up my camera and tripod.
The restaurants. The gallery. The popular art scene. The food. Charmaine's ice cream place in Fitzroy. The Dandenongs.
