Welcome to WriteDirection gc.
My name is Alison Houston and I have been a journalist, writer, sub-editor and editor for over 27 years.
I have edited reference books, autobiographies and novels, as well as reporting for, sub-editing and editing regional newspapers and bi-monthly specialist magazines.
As a journalist, I have worked across Queensland, NSW and Victoria. Starting out as a reporter, I covered everything from general news to police rounds and court, feature stories to local and state government issues, before moving into editing copy and designing pages across more than 20 publications. I currently work as a freelance editorial consultant and journalist.
Since 2011, I have also worked as an editorial consultant for ABK Publications, sub-editing books and the bi-monthly magazine.
Having grown up in Sydney, I completed my Bachelor of Arts at the Australian National University in Canberra, majoring in English and Law before getting my first break in journalism in Victoria.
As a result of both my studies and years in journalism, I have excellent grammar, language, communication, research and organisational skills, allowing me to put the polish on your project to present it at its best.
