Over the past thirty years in my work as a creative writing teacher, mentor and editor I’ve worked with many writers at all stages of their career. As well as being passionate about my own work as a writer of fiction and nonfiction, I love working with writers to help them hone their craft, explore new techniques, become confident about process, and to write the best possible work. With years of experience in the publishing industry as a successful author, and through my work with various peak author groups and publishers, I also work with authors towards publication. She/her. I work and live on Gadigal country.

I work with a range of peak organisations and educators as a writing teacher, mentor and assessor, researcher and educational advisor. I’m formerly an Associate Professor, Department of Media, Communications, Creative Arts, Language and Literature at Macquarie University.
