Annie Seaton grew up, and went to university, in Newcastle, and now lives near the beach on the mid-north coast of New South Wales.

Each winter, Annie and her husband leave the beach to roam the remote areas of Australia for story ideas and research. One of her favourite destinations is the Whitsunday region, a stunning and pristine landscape threatened by human activity, and Annie’s forthcoming book, Osprey Reef is set on the reef. Annie also has many books published digitally internationally across many genres, and also self-publishes in print. Annie has been traditionally published with Pan Macmillan Australia and is now with Harper Collins Australia with two more forthcoming books: Osprey Reef (2021) and East of Alice (2022).
