New South Wales

Emma Darcy was the pseudonym used by the Australian husband-wife writing team of Wendy and Frank Brennan, and after his death in 1995, she continues writing under this penname.

Voracious readers, for the marriage the step to writing their own books seemed a natural progression and the challenge of creating wonderful stories was soon highly addictive. With their strong interest in people and relationships, the marriage found the world of romance fiction a happy one. In 1983, they published their first novel as Emma Darcy, and now average six new books per year. In 1993, in the Emma Darcy's 10th anniversary, Wendy and Frank Brennan created the "Emma Darcy Award Contest" to encourage authors to finish their manuscripts. It had a prize of $2,000 and a guarantee that the manuscript would be seen by an acquiring editor. Wendy Brennan is currently living on a beautiful country property in New South Wales.
