Julie Keys lives in Illawarra on the NSW south coast. Her debut novel, The Artist’s Portrait, was shortlisted for The Richell Prize for Emerging Writers in 2017 and will be published by Hachette in early 2019.

Julie was awarded a Varuna LitLink Residential Fellowship in 2017, shortlisted for the Bridport Prize in 2015, received 3rd place in the Boroondara Literary Awards in 2013 and shortlisted for the Overland Short Story Prize in 2012. Her short stories have been published across a range of Australian journals.

Julie has worked as a tutor, a Registered Nurse, in positions related to youth homelessness and as a clinical trials co-ordinator. Her life was transformed after a tangle with a B-double truck on the Picton Road. She escaped uninjured, resigned from her job and is now studying a PhD in creative arts at the University of Wollongong and writing full-time.
