Hi, I'm Gina, a Sydney-based writer and editor with more than 20 years' experience across a variety of content.

Whether it's crafting engaging copy for magazines, websites and health organisations or working with writers to shape and polish their manuscripts, I can help you find the right words.

I'm available for:
Book editing: With years of editing and storytelling experience, I can help you get your manuscript in the best possible shape. I work on both fiction and non-fiction and offer big-picture, structural guidance as well as copy editing and proofreading. Not sure what service you need? Visit my editing page for more information.

Content writing: I have years of experience writing engaging, well researched features for media outlets including SBS, The Saturday Paper, Good Food and Body + Soul. I've also created content for brands such as Coles, Officeworks, HCF and Weight Watchers and health organisations including Diabetes Australia, Jean Hailes for Women's Health and NPS MedicineWise.

I can help with a few other things too. Let's have a chat about how we can work together.

"As a first-time author, working with Gina was a life-saver. She opened my eyes, as any great editor should, and gently led me down a better path. I hope I get to work with her in the future on another book."
