When Denise Rossetti was very small, she had an aunt who would tell her the most wonderful fairy stories - all original. Denise grew up, as little girls do, but the love of stories has never left her. All hail the guys in the white hats, she says - unless the ones wearing black are more...um... interesting?

Denise lives in a comfortable, messy old house in the Australian suburbs. She's small, noisy and dreadfully uncoordinated. She also tends to wave her hands around a lot, which can be unfortunate if the tale she's telling happens to have explosions in it!
