The Steele Diaries is a historical/contemporary novel exploring identity, maternity and creativity through the stories of Zelda Steele and her daughter, Ruth. The only child of two famous but self-absorbed artists, Zelda Steele is adopted by her parent's patrons when she is just a baby. Great things are expected of this privileged young woman, but at twenty-seven Zelda is dead, leaving two young children and a body of work that only hints at her promise. Decades later, Zelda's daughter Ruth returns to her childhood home to find the diaries her mother is rumoured to have kept. What they reveal takes her on a journey into the past: her mother's, her grandmothers and, ultimately, her own. Weaving together the narratives of three very different women, living in vastly different times, The Steele Diaries paints a rich and evocative portrait of the Sydney art scene from the thirties to the seventies, and examines the eternal conflict between motherhood and self.

This dictionary of 2,132 entries is a by-product of Schneider's ongoing research on the Apma language. It was generated on the basis of her analysis of the language's phonology (sound system), morphology (word structure), syntax (sentence structure) and discourse structure. Along with definitions, the dictionary also includes the word class ('part-of-speech') of each lexical entry, along with example sentences extracted from Schneider's language corpus.

This portfolio contributes to a growing body of research into walking and creativity. The six poems explore walking as an approach to place-attunement. Following the work of other perambulatory artists, I composed poetry about Western Australian landscapes perceived corporeally through walking. The poems express sensorial responses and, in particular, capture the nuances of my encounters with flora.

Galo is an endangered language of the Tibeto-Burman family spoken by around 60,000 people in the Northeast Indian Himalaya. Despite being a robust language with a long history, no dictionary of the Galo language had previously been produced.

This portfolio of ten poems contributes to the areas of ecocriticism, nature writing and memory studies.

Where Have You Been? is a contemporary suspense novel that explores issues of memory, marriage and identity. The return of a missing, presumed dead, sister after an absence of thirty years, leads to the breakdown of the marriage of the middle class protagonists, Susan and Ed Middleton. The character of the returned sister, who may or may not be an imposter, introduces a puck-ish element that disrupts and exploits the certainties of the Middleton’s comfortable middle-age, and exposes the vulnerabilities of modern suburban life. The work also examines issues of class and sexuality through its depiction of the divergent histories of the two sisters.

As creative bioregional research, 'poetic enquiry' involves dialogue between the sciences and arts, between historical fact and immediate experience. Immersed in the Western Australian context, I wrote poetry about the endemic flora of the state. These six poems narrate the aesthetic features of plants and their diverse narratives, including my own experiential response. The portfolio weaves together multiple ways of knowing the natural world and points to the possibility of creative synergy between knowledge forms.
