p.d.r. lindsay has been writing short stories and stories for children for a very long time. Her first publication was in her school magazine and for a while she paid the bills writing short stories for 'the People's Friend' until she broke into the (then) well-paying university literary journals in Australia, Britain, Canada and the USA, but she still has a soft spot for comforting 'Ah, isn't it nice!' stories for old fashioned magazines and children's bedtime reading. In between novels, or when the novel won't move until the characters have sorted themselves out, p.d.r. continues to write and sell short stories.
