| Introduction | Once you choose HOPE anything is possible…. Despite living within cooee of the Great Barrier Reef, idyllic tropical islands, and a well-stocked ocean pantry, author Alicia Hope is a self-confessed landlubber and disliker of seafood (I know - what the heck, right?!). She’s also a keen horse rider, bass player, and bird watcher, and shares her gumtree-dotted acreage home with author husband, Frank H Jordan, feathered larrikin, cockatiel Kewbie Kewberton, and a whole bunch of wild birds, roos, goannas, and pretty-face wallabies. Her feel-good stories showcase Alicia’s love of the land and the natural world, and this is especially true of her LONG ROAD series.

| Interests | Writing (of course!), gardening, playing songs with my hubby - him on guitar and me on bass (guilty secret: I have 4 bass guitars 'cos, you know, you can never have too many!), playing Texas Hold'em with friends, and knitting (but only in the cooler months). |
| Favorite Movies | The Jane Austen Book Club, Julie and Julia, North and South (TV mini-series), Pride and Prejudice (the one starring Colin Firth), among many others. |
| Favorite Music | Life's too short to list them all.... |
| Favorite Books | Anything by fellow Aussie authors Jane Harper, Kate Morton, and Charlotte Nash, along with ALL of Rosamunde Pilcher's books, which are like chicken soup for the soul, and the delightfully different novels Chocolat and Blackberry Wine by Joanne Harris. |
