Autorenporträt

PERTH-BASED Barbara Gurney is a fiction writer and poet. Her novels are diverse in their storyline, but all have a connection to people and places, to desires and self-growth. She tackles everyday characters who see beyond reality or, in her newest novel, Diary of Lies, a main character who creates her own reality. The idea for Diary of Lies came from considering a response to the question - "What are you doing tomorrow?" Our answers invariable are truth-based. But what if we embellished - "Having dinner with the Premier", "Jetting off to Hawaii"? Who cares? No one really. That is the assumption - until they get out of hand.Her fourth poetry collection is due out in 2023, and will be connected to her newly-found passion for art. Having thirteen publications on her shelf, and many awards on file, she's pleasantly gratified at the success of her writing.She becomes a writing, painting hermit during the Western Australian heat, but is generally open to coffee and cake on any given day!
