An award-winning Australian writer with a long list of publications to her name, Ingrid Woodrow has been part of the Australian literary scene for more than three decades.

As a university student in the late 1990s, Ingrid founded Australia’s first online creative writing journal, Mangrove, now archived as a Site of National Significance at Australia’s National Library. Twenty-plus years on, a PhD in Creative Writing from Griffith University is the most recent degree in a list that includes a Master’s in Creative Writing from Queensland University and a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from Newcastle University—the latter leading to roles as a graded Journalist and Sub-Editor with print and online media outlets including Mackay’s Daily Mercury newspaper and Pagemasters/AAP.

As a freelance writer, Ingrid has been a guest reader and panellist at a multitude of literary events over the years including the Brisbane Writers’ Festival, the Somerset Celebration of Literature; Adelaide Writers’ Festival; Newcastle Writers’ Festival and the Asia-Pacific Writers and Translators (APWT) Conference.

Ingrid currently teaches creative writing through Open Universities Australia. Private editing and proofeading services are also available on request.
