My Author Journey

Having explored the academic and report writing worlds I was finally in a life position to pursue my dream of creative writing. Here is what I've been doing.

 

In 2023-2024, I participated in workshops supported by the Queensland Writers Centre and Avid Reader, in my view one of the best bookshops in Brisbane alongside Bent Books. I continue to connect with a community of like minded people interested in reading and writing.
