Copywriting | Feature Writing | Hobart, Tasmania
We have somehow reached the end of January already!
It’s still school holidays here in Tasmania for another week, but now that my kiddo is a little older – and very able to entertain himself – I’ve managed to get some work done over the last few weeks and thought I would share some links with you.
This is a bit of a fly-by blog post!
I’m just back from a wonderful three weeks visiting family and friends in the UK, and my inbox needs more than a little attention… but the list of articles I’ve had published recently has also been growing steadily. I thought I’d better pop some links up here before I start delving into new work.
It has been an especially busy spell for my work with CSIRO. The pieces I’ve worked on for them recently include:
I have a couple of other CSIRO articles in the publication pipeline, which I’ll share in my next post.
It has also been quite a busy time with Brand Tasmania. Not all of those articles have made it onto the website yet, but the two that have are about Archie Matteo from Westhaven Dairy, and Royce Smith from Granville Harbour Wind Farm.
Finally, I was really pleased to help out the team at Swansea Beach Chalets with content for their revamped website. Swansea Beach Chalets is our favourite place to stay on Tasmania’s East Coast, and it was an honour to help them showcase some of what they have to offer!
Thanks for taking the time to check out some of my recent work. Now, back to that inbox… and let’s see what I’m going to be working on next!

It’s only been about a month since I last posted links to some recent pieces of mine, but I’ve been so busy recently that I thought I would post a few more – before the list gets out of hand!

Just a very quick post from me today to share some recent pieces I’ve had published.
These three links say more than I ever could about the diversity of work that comes my way as a freelancer!
Firstly, I was so pleased to have an essay published in Guardian Australia, reflecting on the ten years that have passed since we first visited Tasmania, and everything that has happened in that time. I’ve had a lovely response to the piece, which I was initially just going to pop on my own DorkyMum blog, so I’m very grateful to the Guardian team for giving it a home and helping it find a bigger audience.
You can read that here: I was told to live like a tourist after my 18,000km move. But I owe Tasmania more than that. Continue reading “May 2023: Some recent work”
Brand Tasmania have been showcasing the inspiring stories of women across the state, and I’ve been lucky enough to work on a few of those pieces.
For an incredible overview of the industries and communities across Tassie that women are involved with, check out the video that was commissioned for International Women’s Day... and then maybe take some time to dig deeper into the individual profiles.
Two of the profiles that I wrote are up on the Tasmanian website now. First is Andi Lucas, founder and managing director of X-Hemp, and second is Rebecca Kissling, owner and curator of An Artistic Affair in Oatlands.
I’ll look forward to sharing a few more Tasmanian stories with you soon!

I’ve been lucky enough to work on a real diversity of writing projects recently, and I thought I’d share a few of them here.
