Ian Smith – Editor

From 2006 until 2013 I lived on a small Greek island and wrote travel stories which appeared in the travel section of The Weekend Australian. I also kept a blog, When the Wine is Bitter, detailing my adventures. In early 2014 I returned to Australia to care for my mother who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. I remained four years in Australia, during which time I co-wrote several books for a UK publisher and also began to work as a structural and copy editor for publishers and independent authors. In early 2018 I returned to Europe and am currently living in Greece, writing a book about my years in Australia and editing the manuscripts of other writers.
