About Me
I write and edit, read and review.
Currently, I am Editor of Open Field iPad magazine, reviewer for Radio National's Book Show, and freelance writer for print and web when life allows.
I'm also writing a novel and am grateful to be working on this with a mentor through the Wired Writing Studio at the Banff Centre.
For four years (ending November 2011), I worked as the Senior Writer and Copywriter for Aesop. I've also worked as a book editor, for companies including Text, Penguin and D.W. Thorpe, and as a magazine sub-editor.
I live in Melbourne, Australia, with my partner Dave (The Royals) and two sons.-
