Editor, writer, publishing professional.
Steph Huddleston is a Melbourne-based writer, editor, and nerd who has tinkered with words for as long as she can remember. In 2024 she graduated from the University of Melbourne with a Masters of Creative Writing, Publishing, and Editing.
She is a member of the Institute of Professional Editors (Victoria) and served as their Student Advisor to the committee during her studies.
In 2022 she won the Youth Summit Creative Competition (co-hosted by the National Youth Commission Australia and WhyNot publication). She has worked with publishing houses large and small, and indie authors. She currently works as a Content Manager (Project Editor) with Cambridge University Press & Assessment within the academic team.
She’s a big fan of cinnamon scrolls, and an even bigger fan of her two mischievous cats. When her head isn’t buried in a book, you’ll find her hanging out with her husband and exploring the outdoors. You can connect with her via Instagram: @stephhuddlestonwriting.
About the orange typewriter…
My logo features an orange typewriter, which might seem anachronistic considering how far the writing and editing process has come.
But I’ve often admired typewriters for their beauty as an object as well as the romantic visions they inspire of writers tapping away at their next great literary work.
While writing these days might be more technologically advanced, what drives many authors and editors now is the same as it was then: a love for storytelling.
When I was taking my passion for editing full-time, I saw my orange typewriter on Facebook Marketplace… Call it a sign, or love at first sight, but that’s how it entered my office, and it’s here to stay.
Let’s work together.
