Michelle Johnston is both an author and an emergency physician. These occupations are not always the easiest of bedfellows. She is a Staff Specialist at the Royal Perth Hospital Emergency Department, a busy inner-city trauma centre where she works as both clinician and teacher. Michelle's first novel, Dustfall, was published by UWA Publishing in February 2018 and shortlisted for the MUD Literary Prize for a debut novel in 2019. Her second novel, Tiny Uncertain Miracles, was published by HarperCollins in 2022. Her days are mostly spent searching for the beauty and awe in a frequently brutal reality.
