Dr Mark Carthew
Children’s Author & Creative Director
Background
I love playing with words and exploring the connection between music, movement and language. Exploring this poetic, intrinsic connection across all cultures was the basis of my PhD research… and the rhythmic playfulness of language percolates throughout my writing.
Creative writing for educational and trade publishing is one of the joys of my life and I have been (& still are) privileged to work with amazing illustrators, editors and designers and to have had works published by some of the world’s leading publishers.
Publishers have included: Scholastic Australia, Scholastic Canada, Harper Collins Publishers (ABC Books), New Frontier Publishing (Australia/UK) , Longman / Pearson Education Australia, Collins Big Cat (UK), Penguin, Random House, Celebration Press (USA), IPKidz, Teacher Created Materials (USA), ETA Cuisenaire (USA), Celepane Press (Australia) , EOLO (Türkiye) & Ford Street Publishing et al.
Leaping Lizards Press is my own imprint, providing an opportunity to publish some exciting new titles, while also keeping some selected back-list titles available to the public.
I am available for author-in-school visits, literary festivals, professional development, keynote and event bookings across Australia and internationally.
