I'm Phoebe Cannard-Higgins, a passionate book-lover, feminist, mother, and creative with a wealth of experience in various forms of writing. Over the last decade, I've immersed myself in the world of words, shaping narratives, and giving life to stories that resonate with readers.
My academic journey has been marked by a thirst for knowledge and a commitment to honing my craft. I hold a Master's degree in Creative and Life Writing from Goldsmith's University in London, where I had the opportunity to delve deeper into the art of storytelling and develop a unique voice that reflects my perspectives and passions. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Professional and Creative Writing from Melbourne University and La Trobe.
In July 2023, I was shortlisted for the Darebin Mayor's Writing Awards. In 2015, my writing was recognized when I won the Future Leaders Questions writing prize. Additionally, my talent was further acknowledged when I was shortlisted for the Monash Undergraduate Prize, solidifying my place among promising emerging writers.
My writing has graced the pages of various publications, showcasing my versatility and range. My works have been featured in Nscribe, The Sumtimes, Voiceworks, Fead, and even found a place in an Anthology of short literature titled 'Crush' by the University of Adelaide. These experiences have allowed me to explore diverse themes and connect with readers from all walks of life.
Beyond my personal projects, I channel my expertise to assist professionals with their writing needs. From editing essays and reviews to crafting engaging blog posts, I take pride in elevating the written content of my clients. Moreover, I help businesses build their brand identity by weaving beautiful copy for websites, social media platforms, marketing materials, and other promotional avenues.
My journey as a writer has been a tapestry of experiences, learning, and growth. I'm excited to embark on new projects and collaborations, and I look forward to utilising my creative expertise to make a positive impact on the world. If you're seeking a wordsmith with a unique perspective and a passion for storytelling, I'm thrilled to work with you. Let's create something beautiful together.
Thank you for stopping by, and I'm eager to connect with you soon!
Warmly, Phoebe Cannard-Higgins
