If you are wanting a long-term mentoring relationship with me, please check out the Australia Writers Mentoring Program – you can book through their website. https://www.writermentors.com/
If your location is within driving distance of Sydney CBD, I also charge $50 per hour travelling time, plus 63c per kilometre car expenses. If the drive is more than 90 minutes from Sydney CBD, I will need to stay overnight or flights must be paid for (business class if flying time is greater than 5 hours).
If I am required to stay overnight, all my accommodation and meal expenses must also be paid.
I usually find that small writing groups prefer to travel to me. Here is the link to my Appearances page that tells you where and what I am teaching over the next six months
