As a professor of creative writing at both the University of Wollongong and RMIT University, Melbourne and as a senior lecturer at University of Technology, Sydney, Cole has supervised some of Australia's leading and emerging writers in their postgraduate degrees.[11]

Literary career

Cole began her literary career publishing poetry in a range of Australian poetry journals with the support of her mentor, A.D. Hope- whom she later wrote about in her memoir, The Poet Who Forgot (2008).[12] Her first published prose fiction was short story, followed by the novels Dry Dock (1999), Skin Deep (2005) and then The Grave at Thu Le (2006) which examines French colonialism in Vietnam.[13][14][15]

Cole's Private Dicks and Feisty Chicks explores the lure of crime fiction and its increasing popularity across international cultures and was published in 1996.[16]

Her lifelong fascination with Vietnam was further explored in the anthology, The Perfume River– Writing from Vietnam (2010).[17]

Cole, along with Vicki Karaminas and Peter McNeil co-edited Fashion in Fiction, Fashion in Textiles, Television and Film (2009).[18]

Some of Cole's recent short stories have been published in leading Australian journals and anthologies (see list of works below); and have been produced by and read on BBC Radio 4.[19]
