As a response to the COVID 19 epidemic, Edwina independently published her self-help title A Guide Through Grief, First Aid for your Heart and Soul to help those suffering great loss because of the pandemic. Her most recent release is as editor/ghost writer for Bryan Hartas’s memoir Hard As – My Life as an Orphan Boy. This project springs from her work running Creative Writing classes with Forgotten Australians, survivors of childhood institutional abuse.

Edwina also runs Relax and Write Retreats for women that combine yoga and writing. She is passionate about the healing power of story.
