Meet Dooley at the Farm

Sally was born in Tasmania in 1957 with a pen in one hand and notepad in the other. From an early age she was engaging her teachers with entertaining stories. Although coming from a musical background, Sally found story telling more rewarding and far easier than perfecting her maths, poor co-ordination or singing skills. Winning a state-wide writing competition in her junior years, Sally pursued her passion for writing and by the late sixties sold her first story.
