Welcome to Publishing Curious.

I’m a publishing industry professional with over two decades’ worth of experience working with three of the Big Five in London and Sydney, as well as Australia’s leading independent publishing houses. I’ve been a publisher of fiction and nonfiction for almost nine years as well as an audiobook editor and book publicity manager. I’m also the author of eight books of my own, including two novels.

Publishing Curious is a publishing consultancy providing manuscript assessment, structural editing, pitching, matchmaking and Publisher at Large services for both fiction and nonfiction. It’s also home to the Substack newsletter: An Insider’s Guide to Book Publishing.

Please get in touch if I can help prepare your manuscript for pitching to agents or publishers or provide any advice for navigating the industry here in Australia and beyond.
