Author: Editor

I am a poet, essayist, book reviewer, writing coach, editor, occasional though, orphaned novelist, book cover designer, and Mum, with a passion for publishing. I began Literati Magazine in 1999 and launched it online in 2004. It was a dream in the making since my early apprenticeship, in the days when desktop publishing was still experimental, and everything was done the old-fashioned way, by hand. It is currently on hiatus. I don't have a personal social presence, though, my professional experience is curated on Incertae Sedes. Welcome to Ballerini Book Press, thank you for visiting. Renée
