Anything is possible,
Dreams really do come true.
But there is no such thing as magic dust…
The magic is in you

I have experience presenting to audiences of all ages and sizes both virtually and online. My biggest face to face session to date has been 400 high school students. I’ve done similar numbers virtually through both the State Library of NSW and YABBA. To book me contact Speakers Ink or CKT Speakers Agency.







School and Daycare visits
I am available for both school and daycare visits. I’ve presented to small groups of five up to large groups of over 400. My visits range from a simple storytime with craft, activities and book signings to telling the story behind my story – be that how I became a published author or perhaps hearing about how I grew up sailing the world on the sailboat my Dad built – to creative writing workshops.
Creative Writing for Kids
Do you have some budding writers in your class? Perhaps you just want your kids to explore their imaginations? I am available to do creative writing workshops for all grades that are guaranteed to get even the reluctant kids writing or illustrating. Send me an enquiry on my Contact form or contact Speakers Ink or CKT Speakers Agency.
Creative Writing for Adults
I’ve released a lot of books in quite a short time after years of hearing nothing but crickets. The reason the term ’emerging author’ exists is because we all start somewhere. When I was starting out, I made so many simple and unnecessary mistakes. This led to me studying…I studied – and continue to study – picture books, the format, the themes and the publishing industry and I am keen to share what I have learnt. Book me for your writer’s group and let’s talk about picture books and creative writing.
Testimonials
I recently had the pleasure of working with Rory H. Mather, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. His insights and expertise into lyrical story writing and rhyme is amazing and the art of story and persistance is truly inspirational. Rory’s approach combines practicality with deep emotional intelligence, enabling students to unlock their potential and achieve their writing goals with a never give up approach. The strategies he offers are not only effective but also easy to implement, making a real difference in my life. If you’re looking to make meaningful connections and elevate your personal writing and creative growth journey, Rory is the person to turn to!
