About Hunter Leonard
Hello. My name is Hunter Leonard and I'm an author, writer, speaker and business owner based in Australia. I was born in Canberra - our nations capital - and spent most of my early life in Sydney - attending school in Baulkham Hills and then studied science at Macquarie University. I have worked in sales and marketing for over thirty years, building three successful businesses in marketing and business advisory.
I love the creative process of writing - whether it is for fun or for business. I've written ten books, thousands of articles, songs, poems, short stories, children's stories and a sci-fi novella. One of my short stories was animated in the Jaffas Down the Aisle Film Festival and I've won several competitions for creative writing. I've also written award-winning radio and marketing campaigns.
I write every day following the mantra that
a writer writes.
