Ruffle, Sue: - Growing up in the Belgian Congo (now the DRC), where her father was a Sabena pilot, Sue Ruffle discovered French language comics such as Tintin, Spirou, Asterix and Les Schtroumpfs (the Smurfs) sparking a lifelong passion for storytelling. Years later, Sue created her own fantasy realm of small anthropomorphic beings for her own children. They loved it and, after a crazy what if moment, she set her sights on sharing her story with young readers worldwide. Through countless challenges, she held fast to her dream and now finally, her story will be told. Sue's career spans international advertising, founding her own children's marketing company, and after moving to Australia in 2006, she served as a marketing director in the animation industry. She later co-founded boutique ad agency The Gaswerx in 2011. Today, with the support of her husband, and four grown-up children, she is fulfilling her decades-long dream as a Middle Grade Graphic Novel author. Fluent in English and French, Sue lives in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales with her husband and three spoiled Jack Russell terriers, and enjoys walking, crime and mystery novels, amateur theatre and all things fantasy Middle Grade.
