Honor Auchinleck

Inspired by keen travellers and her storytelling parents, Honor Auchinleck has led a peripatetic life. With her husband Mark who served in the British Army, she has moved home nineteen times, living, working and travelling in five different countries on three continents. Honor has taught English as a Second Language, worked as a freelance features writer and as a photographer for expatriate newspapers. She also worked for an archaeology company in England. Born in Melbourne in 1953 and educated by correspondence schooling at Towong Hill, Toorak College, the Australian National University, and OU in England, she has maintained strong roots in Australia. After returning to Australia to live in 2009 she now combines writing with raising Aberdeen Angus cattle on her farm in the Upper Murray and living in Melbourne.
