Nick Place

Nick Place has been a professional writer for longer than some people have been alive, although, if you think about it, that’s true of all authors. Nick has worked as a journalist, content creator and editor across all media, from newspapers and magazines to radio, TV, and the amazing electrical interweb.

Nick is the author of five published novels, including several celebrated and internationally published children’s novels and the acclaimed adult crime book Roll With It. He has also penned several short stories, poetry, film and even a sell-out musical comedy stage show.

Most recently, he is the co-author of the enthusiastically reviewed and triple-Australian best-selling Stalin's Wine Cellar (Penguin Books 2021) that has been published into multiple countries including China and France. Nick has won several awards for journalism, and none for ice hockey, at which he is an honest trier, at best. He lives in Melbourne and works in his day job as an impact storyteller for philanthropy and charities, all the while wondering why Hollywood hasn’t called yet.
