Max Tuffy

Born in the gritty, creative heart of Fitzroy, Melbourne in 1975, Max Tuffy spent most of his life more concerned with the flow of pipes and the flight of a cricket ball than the flow of prose. A lifelong "tradie," Max has earned is living as a plumber, a career that taught him the value of a job done right and the necessity of a thick skin. Max lives in Melbourne, where he continues to balance the wrench and the keyboard, usually with a sarcastic remark at the ready for anyone who takes him--or his books--too seriously.
