Welcome to my Musings

Welcome to The Book Muse, a collection of my reviews for my blog, ArtsHubSisters in Crime, as well as a range of blog tour appearances, and collaborations with Books on Tour. I have also worked with the Australian Broadcasting Corporation for International Day of People with a Disability in 2022 and 2024. There are also links to advocacy blogs for Cancer Council NSW, and work I have done with the National Centre for Australian Children’s Literature. I have also been a judge for the Forevability awards, the 2025 Davitt Awards and I also volunteer for Guide Dogs NSW/ACT as a researcher and blog writer.

If you would like to send me a review request, please read my Review Policy first and use the Contact Me form to get in touch as this will make it easier for me to read and assess your request. My focus is on children’s literature and Australian children’s literature in particular.

There are also a few short stories I have had published uploaded as well as links to Weekend NotesGood Reading MagazineArtsHub and Writing NSW, and the title of a book I have had a poem published in. I am available to edit and proofread as well, and am looking for copywriting work. I have further examples available in document form if needed. And catch all my reviews and other content on my Substack as well, updated as often as I can.
