Please introduce yourself, who are you and what do you do?
Terrence J Goodchild, I was born in Manchester in the UK, worked in the construction industry and then in the Automotive trade and ran my own business, Came to Australia in 1988 with my wife and daughter, where I worked for Mercedes Benz, Lada Australia, Kenworth and then International Iveco, we now have farm in The Tamar Valley in Tasmania.
What first inspired you to start writing?
When I lived in the UK my brother and I were put in an orphanage, he was seven and I was ten, the time was very traumatic and since then I have had nightmares and dreams, now I put them into stories and then into books, my first novel was Jacob Foley which is about an orphanage and what went on, and every time I have a dream a new book appears.

If you could write anybody's biography, whose would it be and why?
I would write a biography about Barack Obama, as he is the one who really has inspired a Nation, being the first black American president after all the black slaves and immigrants have been through, he must rank as one of the best, you never know the next president may be an American Indian, won’t that be something.

What is it about your stories that makes them stand out?
I hope what makes my stories stand out is there are a lot of truths in them as each one is a story about a part of my life, the people I have met and places I have travelled to.
