Zoe Taylor
Zoe started her career in journalism more than 15 years ago covering parish council meetings in tiny village halls in the Kent countryside in the UK and later specialised in health journalism, spending three years as a medical correspondent on the London Evening Standard before re-locating to Australia.
She was bowled over by the Aussie spirit before even arriving, after a visit to Bali turned into a working holiday while she reported on the 2002 terrorist bombings for papers in the UK and Australia. She has since worked as a news, health and court reporter and columnist for The Daily Telegraph and now fits in work around her two young children.

I'm one of the older ones, so I've certainly seen a few changes in my time. When I started school I learned to write with a nib pen, dipped in an inkwell (no, I'm not kidding). My mother became a dab hand at getting inkstains out of my clothes. Flicking ink at one another in the classroom was an essential… [read more]From: I’d rather have a piece of toast than listen to crap lyrics
