Biography

McKenzie was born in Melbourne, Australia, in 1970. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Professional Writing & Literature from Deakin University. McKenzie's varied work history includes stints as a telemarketer, a restaurant manager, a retail lighting salesman, Club DJ, television actor, and bookseller. From 2012 to 2014 McKenzie owned and operated Notions Unlimited Bookshop, which specialized in science fiction, fantasy, horror, and related genres. He has also sat on the judging panels for both the Aurealis and Australian Shadows awards on several occasions. Between 1990 and 1998, McKenzie enjoyed some success as a playwright and feature writer for mainstream publications, with his first work of fiction - the novel Worlds Apart - published in 1999. He received his first award nomination in 2002 for the anthology AustrAlien Absurdities which he co-edited with Tansy Rayner Roberts. It was nominated for the 2003 Ditmar Award for best Australian collected work but lost to Cat Sparks' anthology Agog! Fantastic Fiction.
