Cameron Raynes

Cameron Raynes, a prize-winning author, has chosen in First Person Shooter to explore the deeply personal experience of adolescent stuttering. Having survived bruising encounters with three psychopaths by the age of 30, Raynes turned away from welfare work and anthropology to find his voice as a writer. He lives in Semaphore, a beach-side suburb of Adelaide, with his wife, two children and seagull-chasing Kelpie, teaches history at the University of South Australia and is the author of The Last Protector and the short story collection The Colour of Kerosene.
