title: Making a Name and other stories
author:  Rosanne Dingli 
description: Rosanne Dingli has authored six books of fiction and a poetry collection. Her work has appeared in print and on the Internet since 1985. She has worked in various publishing roles, and has lectured in writing. For more information, please visit rosannedingli.com<br /><br />ROSANNE DINGLI's first published piece, in 1985, when she was living in Narrandera, NSW, set her on a one-way journey towards life as a writer, which she has tried several times to give up, without success. It led her at different times to jobs that consistently confirmed the publishing industry endures swift and sudden changes, and is as full as other things in life of rogues, angels and every other kind of creature in between. She has met the full gamut, from sour scoundrels to sweet spirits.<br />Her first novel, Death in Malta, was written quickly, but took years to edit to its present form. According to Luke was a labour of intensity, love and discovery. She still cannot get over what hard work writing a novel is, compared to anything else, except perhaps running a family, which is just as incomprehensible and liable to change as the publishing industry.<br /><br />This author's short stories have been described as lyrical, sexy, intelligent and atmospheric ... often by the same reader!
