Meredith Badger

Meredith Badger

The first thing that Meredith Badger ever wanted to be was a writer and illustrator. Actually, the very first thing she wanted to be was a tight-rope walker because she wanted to wear a tutu and carry a parasol. But once she realised her alance wasn’t all that great, she decided she’d like to make books instead.
 
And this is exactly what she has done since her first published story appeared in DOLLY magazine at the age of 15. Today Meredith is the modest author of over 375,000 books sold across Australia and New Zealand. She is one of the main contributing authors of the phenomenal Go Girl! titles, a series which has now sold over 1.6 million copies across Australia and New Zealand since 2005. Her penned titles are a favourite with the young fans of the series and her popularity is reflected in her event appearances. Meredith was most recently mobbed while visiting schools in the highly publicised Books Alive 2008 campaign.
 
This ability to connect with the real girls of today is something that Meredith takes pride in “Writing a Go Girl! often involves delving back into distant schoolyard memories. Sometimes they are funny in hindsight, sometimes they are still embarrassing or painful! Lots of things have changed since I was at school, but the fundamentals are still the same – friendship, siblings, sport, school, and the ups and downs of life as a pre-teen.”
 
Meredith’s other credits include writing and illustrating a picture book Cinderella, with an Australian twist and the very cute Fairy School Drop-Out trilogy. Fairy School Drop-out came about when Meredith found herself wondering ‘what if you were born a fairy, but weren’t very good at being one…and would rather be ‘normal’? ‘The fun part of this series was inventing all the high-tech fairy contraptions,’ says Meredith. ‘The problem is I started to really want the things that I invented – like the hover lamp, for instance.’
 
Her most recently completed book – Tweenie Genie: Genie in Training – aims to ‘debunk the myths’ surrounding genies. Poppy discovers on her twelfth birthday that she is not as ordinary as she had always presumed. She is actually a genie, and is expected to start behaving like one straight away!
 
Meredith divides her time between working in new media, writing, and eaves-dropping on kids when she’s in her local South Melbourne park with her three-year-old daughter.
