Hi, thanks for visiting.

​I'm A.J. Betts, West Australian author of young adult fiction. 
​My books include the duology Hive and Rogue (Pan Macmillan, 2018/2019), Zac & Mia (Text Publishing, 2013), Wavelength (Fremantle Press, 2010), and Shutterspeed (Fremantle Press, 2008).

What I'm working on
I'm hard at work on a new manuscript which is a return to realism after the sci-fi/dystopian novels Hive and Rogue. I'm onto revision five and having a ball. 
​​
What else I'm doing
In 2022, I'm taking a(nother) break from teaching to focus on the novel. I'm also writing humorous columns for the AEU Magazine (Victoria), cycling, reviewing, reading, puppy-wrangling and daydreaming.

A.J.
