Writing Tips

One of my favourite questions to ask a published author is about their writing tips to aspiring authors. Because I’m hoping others share my curiosity I’ve prepared my writing tips as a ‘This is all I know about publishing.’ I’m hoping these will help other aspiring authors on their journey.

General tips-the building blocks to becoming an author
Short story tips-All I know about writing/submitting and getting short stories published
Novel tips-All I have to say about writing a novel

I’ve left the comments enabled on these pages so if you have a question/comment/feedback-I welcome anything you have to say.

Please note that my tips are specific to the Australian publishing industry. While these tips are what worked for me, everyone’s journey is unique.

Good luck on your journey to publication
