STAFFORD
Paul Stafford is a literacy consultant (specialising
in Stage 3-4 reluctant boy readers & writers) in schools
across Australia. His latest series of books of comedy-horror, Horror High, are published by Random House Australia, and

Paul
grew up in Kurrajong Heights and now lives outside Bathurst,
NSW. He studied print journalism at Mitchell CAE, graduating
in 1989, but renounced the make-believe world of journalism
for the hard and gritty reality of teenage fiction. Although
a career in writing has meant abandoning his childhood dreams
of wealth and respectability, he now gets to sleep late,dress
scruffy, and gnaw on the skulls of his enemies. It's a trade-off
he's learnt to live with.
