  About the Author

  L.J. LABARTHE is an Australian woman living with disabilities and her cat. As a young child, she won a competition for drawing a picture of Australian Humpty Dumpty, complete with Aussie hat, corks hanging from strings dangling from the brim to keep the flies away. The drawing was accompanied by an adventure story with Humpty Dumpty she wrote set in Australia. From that moment on, she has not looked back.

  She spends her free time watching television, reads newspapers online for fun, and enjoys a good novel. She loves to cook and enjoys a snifter of absinthe from time to time.

  L.J. would like to take a moment to let her university professor in creative writing know that knowledge of iambic pentameter isn’t necessary in order to be able to enjoy the craft of writing, no matter how much he may have screamed to the contrary.
