Wendy Palmer was born in Perth, Western Australia, but currently lives in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She’s patted tigers, ridden elephants, dog-sledded across glaciers, faced down lions in the Serengeti, swum with whale sharks, and camped in the Sahara, but she secretly prefers curling up with a good book.
By day, she is a freelance researcher, writer, editor, and desktop publisher of training and technical manuals and epubs (email her if you’re in Australia and need a work-from-home publishing temp who knows her way around InDesign), and, also by day (she’s not much of a night owl), she’s the writer of fun fantasy fiction novels.
Her first novel, After the Dragon, features thieves, kings, and elves, though the dragon of the title is merely figurative. It’s available now as an ebook or in paperback through BooksforaBuck.com, Fictionwise, or Amazon.
Her second novel is The Frog Prince’s Daughters. It has feisty girls and eye-candy boys, and is available in ebook or paperback formats through Fictionwise and Amazon.
Her latest novel is Bastard’s Grace, available digitally or in print from Winterbourne Publishing and many other places. It’s a romance-bromance-adventure fantasy tale about a battle-scarred veteran and his loyal sergeant. There’s also a girl involved.
She has had several SF stories published, including Lost in the Woods in Lost!, an anthology by Ginninderra Press; Excision, about zombies; a story in the first Futuristic Motherhood Anthology; and Silent Song, which you can read for free here, published by Future Fire.
She has also published a body of non-fiction articles analysing literature, including a look at time travel fiction and a piece on literary crushes (Lord Peter Wimsey is her own favourite literary crush). Her first non-fiction book is self-help expat guidebook Continental Shift: How to Move Yourself, Your Family, and Your Stuff Overseas, available now through Lulu or Amazon. Find out more about this book at its dedicated site.
