Author: Terry Richardson

Terry Richardson is a retired fire/rescue officer who lives in Henty, in the Riverina district of NSW. In 1971, after working as a junior postal officer in outback Brewarrina, Terry packed his few belongings, including his prized electric guitar, and headed for Sydney on the slow “mixed” train. In the city he tried several occupations, including railway worker, special constable, truck operator, and trained as a motor mechanic. He joined NSW Fire Brigades in 1982 for a career change. Even in school days at Brewarrina, Terry was a prolific writer, and his varied occupations have enhanced his life experiences, which nowadays contribute to his novels. Terry is a keen supporter of rugby league, railways, and the Australian way of life. He met Linda in July 1971, and they married in 1975. Terry and Linda produced two sons and a daughter and, these days, dote on their ten grandchildren.
