About Me

My photo
Paula Weston
My aim with this blog has always been to review great stories, and hopefully start some interesting discussions about the nature of language and the power of narrative. I'm writer, and my debut novel, Shadows (the first in my YA paranormal series, The Rephaim), will be published by Text Publishing in mid 2012. I also co-own pH creative, a communication/design agency, with my good friend Heather Scott. Oh, and I'm a proud member of the Queensland Writers Centre :)
