Sarah Laing (born 1973) is a New Zealand author and cartoonist.

Background

Laing was born in 1973 in Champaign-Urbana, USA and grew up in Palmerston North, New Zealand. As a teenager she moved to Wellington and has also lived in Germany, New York, and Auckland. She is currently based in Wellington.[1]

Career

Laing has a background in graphic design and worked as an illustrator.[1] She illustrated Macaroni Moon, a children's poetry book by Paula Green.[2]

In 2007 she published her first collection of short stories, Coming up Roses.[3] Her first novel, Dead People’s Music, was published in 2009.[4][6] She is also the author of the short story ebook Inside a Pomegranate.[1]

Following her time at the Sargeson Centre, she wrote and illustrated her second novel, The Fall of Light.[1]

In 2016 she published the memoir Mansfield and Me: a Graphic Memoir (Victoria University Press), using the life and work of Katherine Mansfield to reflect on her own experiences; it was described as "part biography of Katherine Mansfield, part autobiography, and part account of her nagging insecurity about her own abilities."[1][5]

With Rae Joyce and Indira Neville, Laing is the co-editor of Three Words: An Anthology of Aotearoa/NZ Women's Comics.[6][7]

Awards

In 2006, Laing won the 2006 Sunday Star-Times Short Story Competition.[8]

Laing was a writer in resident at the Michael King Writers Centre in 2008 and 2013.[9] With Sonja Yelich she received the 2010 Grimshaw Sargeson Fellowship.[10]
