About

Alannah Foley…
aka The Pyjama Writer

Born in Australia, raised in the UK, I’m a writer of both fiction & non-fiction and cover topics as diverse as capers in a campervan, the vagaries of living with an obsessive cyclist, adventures Down Under, and tales ‘full of twists, turns & tickles’.

In my twenties, I journeyed to my Aussie birthplace and got much more than I bargained for – especially since mozzies loved to use me for target practice! After five years, I returned to Old Blighty devoid of shark or snake bite and wrote my first-ever book, The Jacaranda Trail, about my adventures there. Two decades later, I made a return trip which I wrote about in Up a Creek Down Under.

My Tales from Corny Cove series features fun feel-good reads set in the picturesque county of Cornwall where I live in the southwest of England. And the Campervan Bushman Mysteries is a series with an edge of humour, a sense of adventure and a hint of romance starring Scott Chevalier, who’s kinda like a young Crocodile Dundee with a campervan & surfboard.

UPDATE: I’m blogging and posting on social media a whole lot less now in favour of focusing my precious time on writing books that readers will enjoy.

The good news? I do occasionally post updates on social media, BUT the absolute-best ports of call for following me & getting the most up-to-date information on my work are as follows:
