David Brelsford emigrated aged 22 and fell in love with Australia straightaway. 'The only regret I have about coming here, ' he says, 'is that I didn't come earlier.' He took up long distance running in his fifties and has undertaken charity runs to raise funds for Motor Neurone Disease research. He lives in Launceston, Tasmania, with his wife, pet spaniel, and two budgies. He has three sons and two grandsons. He enjoys gardening, likes running, loves classical music and is a mad keen square dancer.

David Brelsford is a shameless dog lover as is evident in many of his short stories. He is currently the joint owner (with his wife) of a gentle springer spaniel, but has fantasies of one day owning a Bernese mountain dog. He has undertaken charity runs to raise funds for motor neurone disease, but at 81 his running days are over. He now contents himself with being a mad keen square dancer. He has three sons and four lovely grandchildren. He also loves classical music and does part-time work for the homeless.
