Jason Nahrung

I grew up on a Queensland cattle property and work as a newspaper journalist in Brisbane. My writing has won the William Atheling Jnr award for Criticism or Review, been highly commended in the Aurealis Awards and been shortlisted in the Ditmars and the Australian Shadows.

My debut novel, The Darkness Within (Hachette Australia), is based on a novella written with my partner Mil Clayton by email when we were living two states apart.

In 2008, I finished a Master of Arts (research) in creative writing with a focus on Australian vampire Gothic.

In 2004 I was director of the Aurealis Awards. In 2005 I was honoured to share the William Atheling Jnr award for criticism and review with Australian horror doyen Robert Hood. My award was for an article written for the Courier-Mail newspaper about the state of horror fiction in Australia.
