It&nbsp;had a bush area down the back that was perfect for escaping and exploring. After a stint as a dancer she edited websites and travel guides, but her biggest passion has always been writing. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 110%;">Thalia has published multiple books in the Go Girl! series, as well as a non-fiction book <em>It&rsquo;s True! Sleep Makes You Smarter!</em> (which <em>is</em> true, in case you&rsquo;re wondering). She has also published two novels in the Girlfriend Fiction series, <em>Step Up and Dance</em> and <em>What Supergirl Did Next</em>. Her books have been translated into a variety of languages and sold into countries around the world including Brazil, the USA, Canada, Turkey, China and Korea. Her latest book <em>Head Spinners</em> is available in bookshops and as as an ebook now.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 110%;">These days she lives in north-eastern Victoria with her <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campbell_Mattinson">husband</a> and two children, and their black cat named Bindi. She is currently trying to think up a logical reason why time travellers from the future haven&rsquo;t popped in yet to say hi.&nbsp;</span>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
