"The Bark Cutters did well, becoming one of the highest-selling debut novels of 2010 and reaching #6 on the Australian Fiction List," Nicole says.

Nicole is a fourth-generation grazier working full-time on her family property located 110km north-west of Moree, near the NSW-QLD border.  She had previously left the property for a glamorous life and good job in the city, but has now returned to run the property and write in her spare time.

Nicole's very successful non-fiction title, How to Get a Girl - a glovebox guide for men led to numerous media interviews and speaking engagements. She has also published poetry collections including Divertissements - Love-War-Society selected poems.
