About the Author – Henry Johnston

Henry photo white balance & sharpenedHenry Johnston is a full time writer specialising in the short story format. He divides his time between inner-city Rozelle in Sydney, Australia, and the South Coast of New South Wales. Henry’s family migrated to Townsville from the U.K., before moving to Sydney, at a time when the city sparkled with luminous golden sandstone buildings and low-rise ornate Victorian architecture.
