About Comma Guru

Russel Brownlee portrait

Your editor and writing coach, Russel Brownlee

I’ve always believed the advice that we should follow our dreams, and for me that was always to become an author. I’ve had the good fortune of being published and have followed my passion to explore the craft of writing and creativity at ever deeper levels. Along the way I’ve worked as an editor for corporates, publishers and independent authors and I’ve learnt how to bring out the story in any piece of text. Now I combine editing, author mentorship and creativity coaching to offer writers support at any stage of their journey – from first ideas to publish-ready manuscript. My associates and I look forward to working with you to bring out the best in your writing and creativity.
