Paula Smith was born in England in 1962. In 1996 she moved to Australia with her partner. They settled in Sydney. She got a job at the Australian National Maritime Museum as an Education Officer and also bought a business tutoring students in English and Maths. In 2002 she gave birth to her son, followed a year later by her daughter. She sold the business to become a stay at home mother. She used that time to write Lucky for Some, Shopping for Trouble, The Secret in the Farmhouse, The Art Show and A Second Chance. She now lives in Newcastle, north of Sydney, looking after her children and writing, with plans to return to teaching soon.
