Remona Mejak

Creative Writing Coach

Life-defining moments guide us toward or away from our purpose. At my mother Daphne’s gravesite, the realisation that her incredible storytelling talent died with her was profound. She never had the courage to publish, a regret I vowed to address by educating myself across publishing levels. My commitment is to help storytellers find audiences, connect with readers, and share their messages. The other legacy my mother gave me is my Aboriginality, tracing back to the Wailwan and Ngemba people.

Colonialism's impact on my family fuels my drive to improve outcomes for my people. With 35 years of experience in film studios, production houses, publishing, and more, my dedication is to protect storytellers globally. I've observed that the failure of most books is often due to authors lacking publishing industry knowledge. My coaching focuses on reconciliation for all nationalities, recognizing that every person and family has a story worth telling in our global community.
