Fiona McCallum was raised on a cereal and wool farm near Cleve on
South Australia's Eyre Peninsula and remained in the area until her
mid-twenties, during which time she married and separated. She then
moved to Melbourne and on to Sydney a few years later.
An avid reader and writer, Fiona returned to full-time study as a
mature-age student and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in
professional writing and editing and a second major in history in
2000. She then began a consultancy providing writing and editing
services to the corporate sector. While studying, and then working,
Fiona found herself drawn to writing fiction where her keen
observation of people and their everyday lives could be combined
with her love of storytelling.
Now a full-time novelist, Fiona writes heart-warming stories that
draw on her rich and contrasting life experiences, love of animals
and fascination with human nature. Her first novel, Paycheque, was
published in 2011 and became a bestseller. In the nine years since,
Fiona has written another ten bestselling novels: Nowhere Else,
Wattle Creek, Saving Grace, Time Will Tell, Meant To Be, Leap of
Faith, Standing Strong, Finding Hannah, Making Peace and A
Life of Her Own. The Long Road Home is Fiona's twelfth novel.
Fiona currently resides in suburban Adelaide.
