Meet the Editor: Helen

Raised by farmers and now married to one, I love country living and the outdoors, making sure to make the most of rural Australia with my family. I’ve had the pleasure of working with a diverse range of authors and genres through freelancing on-and-off between motherhood and the farm for the past six years. My passion for storytelling drives me to help writers refine their craft and reach their fullest potential. Editing is an art and a partnership. I believe that every manuscript has a heartbeat, and it’s my job to listen closely to that rhythm. I prioritise a writer’s unique voice while providing constructive feedback that strengthens their narrative. My approach is both supportive and critical, ensuring that every story not only captivates readers but also resonates on a deeper level.

Currently Reading:

Summertime in the City by Fiona Collins

Guilty Pleasure Book:

I enjoyed Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella far too much while waiting for a delayed flight once, does that count?

Favourite Book Made Into A Movie:

Jack Reacher. I like the TV series too, perhaps even more.

Fun Facts:

• I’m a poetry enthusiast and enjoy writing haikus in my spare time.

• I have a penchant for all things used and vintage and love scouring thrift shops for hidden treasures.

• I wanted a girl; my husband wanted a boy. We got both (twins)!
