I have an MA in Editing, Creative Writing & Publishing from Australia's #1 University, I have experience interning at trad publishing houses, I have hundreds of books edited under my belt, I'm an agented Writer, and I work for one of Australia’s biggest writers festivals... so I live and breathe this world daily. Basically, I care a lot, I know what I’m doing and your book is about to become my entire personality.
