Grant writing services

I provide grant writing services to individuals and organisations seeking funding for arts-based programs. I specialise in funding applications relating to writing and the publishing industry, but can assist those working in other sectors.

Over the past decade, I have secured funding to support peak organisations, national literary events, STEAM education programs, journal publishing, professional development programs, industry research projects, literary awards and social enterprises. As Program Manager at the Australian Society of Authors (ASA), I gained extensive experience preparing funding applications for the Australia Council for the Arts, Copyright Agency’s Cultural Fund, and state-based cultural agencies. I also provided assistance to authors independently applying for funding to support their writing projects. 

As a writer with experience in publishing and arts advocacy, I have thorough knowledge of the professional environment in which authors work. I understand the processes involved in assessing funding applications, having managed many grant programs for the ASA. This enables me to develop strategies for individuals and organisations, providing them with the greatest chance of success in securing funding.

Rates are negotiable, according to the level of detail required by the funding body and the nature of the project. Not-for-profit rates are available to NGOs and registered charities.

For more information, or to discuss your application, please contact me.


Consultation services

Consultation services are available to Australian writers and writing organisations preparing their own funding applications, but who seek guidance with application strategies and/or budget preparation. Consultations are conducted online.

A typical one-hour consultation includes:


  • Identifying a strategy to support your case for receiving funding
  • Guidance with preparing a budget
  • Assistance with preparing a project schedule.

Please get in touch for more information.

I acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the Traditional Owners of the land on which I work, and all Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia. I recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' continuing connection to land, place, sky, waters and community. I pay my respects to their cultures, Country and Elders past, present and emerging, and to Australia's first storytellers.
