Hello, I'm Stan R. Murray. At 73 years old, I have lived a life full of varied experiences. Born in Australia and a First Fleet descendant, I've spent 32 years managing imports and exports for a multinational company, with many other office jobs before that.
I live a quiet life with my wonderful wife, Doris. My passions include gardening, writing, and illustrating. While I don't consider myself an author just yet, I love telling stories and sharing them with others.
My books are a collection of stories, each around 50 pages long, with one illustration per story to spark the reader's imagination. They are enjoyed by anyone who still holds onto a bit of their childhood imagination, though they are especially popular with mums and grandmothers choosing books for their children.
I'm working on my second book, which should be out later this year so keep an eye out for that!

With some outstanding reviews from his US audience via the Online Book Club - Philadelphia.
J.Odoya wrote: "Murray transports his readers into a world of fantasy where just about anything can happen. There is a lot to like about Fanciful Fairy Tales; the stories are creative and educative. Once notices calculable content for children in this book. The stories dazzle with invaluable moral lessons".
Barbara Perini wrote: "I found it so interesting when a story combines humour and life lessons. Indeed, it's important to spread meaningful messages for children. And I think adults can get inspiration as well".
Emily-Jen wrote: "Through this book, Murray immerses young readers into the relevant and highly effective fairy tales that sharpen children's imagination and equip them with creativity in handling various problems in this book. This book is a must read for children".
