'Born in a cosy village in Brittany, France, Mael D'Armor has worked as an academic, cartoonist and young children's author. He came to Australia in search of wide spaces and exciting life forms. For reasons as yet unclear to him, this prompted his move into fiction and his first, award-winning short story was published in 2012. He writes about the complexities of desire, frustration, hope, love and French kissing ' though not always in that order.'
