Write-Off with Francesca SteeleLiane MoriartyIt’s hard to express quite how much I love Liane Moriarty's writing. I have read all of her books, some of them many times, and I just think she combines such a good eye for women's interior lives and the complex issues we confront in ordinary, everyday life with a great sense of humour and unique momentum. Liane published her first novel at 38, spurred on when her sister Jaclyn, also an author, was published. Her first attempt, though – a children’s book – was, she says, rejected by everyone. I love listening to Liane talk about sibling rivalry and support...

Out of the BoxJaclyn MoriartyJaclyn Moriarty made a massive career transition, which thousands — or perhaps millions — of people are very grateful for. She started off as a media lawyer; she represented shock jock Alan Jones in the Cash For Comment scandal and also the boxer, Kosya Tzu. Then she left that world to make other worlds. She became a writer, an award-winning, best-selling author, of young adult fiction. Feeling Sorry for Celia, Finding Cassie Crazy, the Colours of Madeleine trilogy are just some of her books read widely in Australia, the US, UK and Latin America.
