Darcy was super excited to recently have her middle grade reader novel aimed at age 8-12 year olds published. Thumb Pickles and Other Cautionary Preserves is a creepy novel about a small town that loses their thumbs to a thumb thief.
When not writing, Darcy loves to kayak, walk her dog, hang out with her teenage son, listen to music and read. When not teaching during the day, she is up late studying. (See! Homework never ends!) Darcy is currently in her final year of studying a BA in Creative Writing at Griffith University.

Julie Murphy
Julie Murphy writes fiction and non fiction for children. She trained as a zoologist and zookeeper, and loves being near animals and nature. Her favourite place is the beach. Any beach. But forests and deserts are pretty nice too. So are mountains.
She lives in Melbourne, which has very few of these things (although she does work part time at an urban farm).
Julie’s books are mostly non fiction picture books about animals and the environment, for readers ranging from 4 to 14. Two are in award winning series.
Her first fiction picture book, GILLY’S TREASURES, was released in 2016. She also writes stories and poems for various children’s collections.
Julie is happiest when writing playful picture books that have fun with words.
