A former journalist from Australia who graduated with majors in history and politics, Prue is now a cross genre writer who enjoys writing escapist fiction for her readers. Mostly however, she writes her favourite genre of historical fiction. She is fortunate to have had almost all her writings awarded globally and she remarks that it encourages her to continue on. Her 2019 foray into contemporary fiction, Passage, has been honoured, not just with a finalist’s award from Chanticleer, but with an endorsement from the great Irish writer, Cathy Kelly. During Australia’s Covid-Lockdown in 2020, she wrote a short book called The Pillowbook of Prudence which she based on the work of Sei Shonagon, from one thousand years before. Prue’s Pillowbook was written as a gentle escape for those in need during Lockdown. In 2021, she released a mini hist.fict anthology set in the 12th century, called Sword and Sirventes. She is currently still happily in the same timeframe, writing a three book collection called The Peregrinus Series and which incorporates loved characters from previous novels in the venal setting of medieval trade. The great writers, Christian Cameron, Simon Turney and Matthew Harffy have reviewed her works and comment freely on its excellence.
