Hi, I’m a NZ-born author who lives in Tauranga, in the sunny Bay of Plenty, with my husband, two children, and our fluffy cat. My debut novel, Hannah & Huia, has been published by Quentin Wilson Publishing.

Brought up on a lifestyle block in Tamahere, just out of Hamilton, I kept busy in the earlier years with an array of interests and talents ranging from ballroom dancing, violin, piano and singing to being a member of the New Zealand Shooting Team and High Performance Academy for air-rifle shooting.

I graduated from the University of Canterbury with a Bachelor’s degree in Speech-Language Therapy (Hons.). Since then, I’ve worked in the hospital setting as well as in schools for children with additional needs. I’m the bizarre one who loves writing therapy reports.

Along with a passion for words, I have a desire to bring mental health topics out into the open, and to provide hope for those in need.

Check out my website (charlottelobb.com) for further information about myself, my writing journey, or to contact me.

I look forward to connecting with you!
