Yowie Country

About the Book

About the Author

The author was born in Tasmania Australia, and moved to Perth Western Australia in his teenage years. He worked in the advertising field for many years and is a Commercial Artist/Graphic Designer by profession, but now a writer by choice. He once owned his own organic, mainly self-sufficient farm for 13 years, without the use of electricity, and has trained horses and ploughed his paddocks with a draught horse, as well as trained the draught horse to pull the buggy he built with simple hand tools. He actually worked as a horse-patrol officer on the Rabbit Proof Fence for some years on the Queensland-New South Wales border, near a small rural village called Woodenbong, where several sightings of the Yowie creature have been reported. His horse patrol was mostly in rainforest and wild mountainous country on the ‘scenic rim’ too rugged for motor vehicles, and he has used many of his amazing experiences in his story ‘Yowie Country’ interwoven with fiction from a graphic and very active imagination. He now sails the world in his catamaran with his wife Diane.
