She has undertaken several courses with the Australian Writers Centre, including Writing Picture Books and Writing Children’s Novels. In 2024 she was shortlisted for the CYA Competition, picture books non-fiction category.
Her debut picture book Creature Corridors is published by CSIRO Publishing.
For over 10 years, Billie has worked as a lecturer in early childhood and environmental education, and she loves to share her passion for children’s literature with aspiring primary and preschool teachers.
