 Graeme Simsion Graeme Simsion is the Australian author of The Rosie Project, The Rosie Effect and The Best of Adam Sharp (film rights optioned by Toni Collette/Vocab Films). The Rosie Project has sold more than three and a half million copies in more than forty countries, won or been shortlisted for half a dozen prizes, and was the only novel on Bill Gates’ list of “six books I’d recommend”. Last year Graeme co-authored with his wife, Anne Buist, the novel Two Steps Forward, with film rights optioned by Ellen DeGeneres/Fox Searchlight. Simsion got his big break in books in 2012, when The Rosie Project won the Victorian Premier’s Literary Award for an Unpublished Manuscript. Before that, he was an IT and business consultant, and also has an extensive background in writing and producing short films and plays, mostly for Australian television and film festivals. Graeme’s newest novel, The Rosie Result, recently debuted at No. 1 in fiction novels in Australia. （Photo credit to Rebecca Rocks） Quote "Wow," she said, very quietly, looking back at the vastness of it all.
