Meet the Author - Michael Trant
Saturday 31st August 2024
Michael Trant is a WA country boy now dividing his time between Three Springs and Perth after a variety of careers ranging from farmer, marine draftsman, pastoralist and FIFO pot washer.
Michael Trant writes with an authentic rural voice, drawing on his experiences to open readers to places and lifestyles foreign to many. He has a passion for farming, writing, and gaming, the order of which vary throughout the year, and still works on farms as a tractor driver, mainly to annoy all those teachers who claimed no one would pay him to stare out a window all day. He was shortlisted for the 2023 WA Writing Fellowship as part of the WA Premier’s Book Awards.
He is the author of Ridgeview Station (2017, A&U), Wild Dogs (2022, PRH) and No Trace (2023, PRH), and is represented by Alex Adsett Literary.
