About Hayley
Hayley Lawrence is one of Australia’s best-selling and most prolific authors of young adult fiction.
Drawing on her background as a lawyer, she is best known for writing novels filled with ethical dilemmas that pack an emotional punch.
Into the Wild is Hayley’s latest novel. It’s an adventure story about five teens who venture into the wild, the imperfect choices they make and the consequences they all must live with.
With many accolades from the Children’s Book Council of Australia, including Notable books, a Shortlisting and an Honour Book, Hayley’s novels are fast finding their way into the hands and hearts of eager readers throughout schools and libraries in Australia and New Zealand.
Hayley got her first big break in the literary world when her first novel was shortlisted for The Australian/ Vogel’s Literary Prize for young writers. Since this time, she has published six novels for young adults and is currently working on her seventh.
Hayley is a regular speaker at schools, literary festivals, writers’ centres and conferences, including teacher-librarian conferences. If you would like information about presentations/workshops, including fee structure and availability, please feel free to email Hayley here.
