Hi, thanks for visiting. I'm A.J. Betts, Australian author of young adult fiction.
|
My fourth novel, HIVE, is now available! And it's the most beautiful thing I've ever laid eyes on. HIVE is the first of a two-book series published by Pan Macmillan Australia. The sequel, ROGUE, will come out early in 2019. HIVE can be found in all good bookstores and online at the usual places. The launch of HIVE was heaps of fun! Over one hundred and fifty people helped me celebrate in Fremantle. Thanks to launchers Meg McKinlay and Lesley Reece, and worker bees Marilyn Betts, Bill Betts, Frané Lessac, Julia Lawrinson, Brooke Davis, Brendan Ritchie, Henry Jackson, and all the staff of The Literature Centre. |
