Barb Dwyer is the literary equivalent of a glitter cannon on roller skates: unpredictable, irreverent, and impossible to ignore. Rumoured to be the virtual love-child of Douglas Adams, Nora Roberts, Terry Pratchett and Jane Austen (don't ask how?it was the '90s), she writes books fuelled by midnight snacks, bad decisions, and better punchlines.

Her debut romp, *Cyberchicks in Love*, turns fandom inside-out with a heady mix of satire, romance, and digital chaos, all set against the backdrop of 1998 internet culture and one utterly unprepared movie star.

When she's not weaving mischief into prose, Barb may be found lurking in second-hand bookshops, arguing with her laptop, or plotting the next genre to bend to her will.

Ready to follow her characters down the rabbit hole? Pack snacks, avoid time portals, and definitely don't trust the travel brochure.
