CWSA currently has eight members. Some are listed below.
STEPHEN LORD - LIFE MEMBER
Stephen Lord was born in Adelaide in 1976, and has spent more than 25 years waiting for a TARDIS to come and whisk him away. He took to making things up and writing them down when it became abundantly clear he couldn’t play the guitar to save his life.
In 2008 he renewed a long lapsed membership with the SA Writers’ Centre and has been part of the furniture ever since. He founded Crime Writers SA at the same time and allegedly runs it to this day.
He has spent far too long in university tutorial rooms fishing with explosives and longer still in the studios of community radio stations, where he developed an unhealthy relationship with the sound of his own voice. He has a similarly abiding fondness for popular fiction and decisively unpopular music, and is prone to fits of impotent nerd rage.
