Publishing
Whether displayed on a coffee table, bookshelf or kept dog-eared and splattered on our kitchen bench, we all have that wonderful book we cherish and consult for inspiration and instruction. Bringing such deeply appreciated books to life, from the mind of an author to the home of the reader, is both a pleasure and privilege for Julie.
RECENT WORK
As a freelance publisher and consultant, Julie collaborates with publishing houses and individuals to share their passions and compile some of Australia’s most trusted and adored books.
Maggie’s Recipe for Life by Maggie Beer
with Professor Ralph Martins
Winner of the 2018 ABIA Best Illustrated Book Award, this important book shows how we can begin to eat well to age well, lessening our odds of developing Alzheimer’s and other diseases. Maggie Beer and Professor Ralph Martins share flavour-filled recipes based on the latest science – this is not a diet book, it’s a way of life.
Flour & Stone: Baked for Love, Life and Happiness by Nadine Ingram
Nadine Ingram’s petite inner-city bakery has been keeping Sydney’s sweet-toothed in raptures since 2011 with her perfectly flaky croissants and delectable baked treats. A true documentation of the artistry and joy that baking brings, this book was awarded renowned bookstore Kinokuniya’s Cookbook of the Year and is in its third printing.
