Carmen Jenner

Summary

Born and bred in Perth, Western Australia, one of my earliest memories was of visiting a bookshop on windy St Georges Terrace, lined with timber bookcases all the way to the ceiling and a spiral staircase leading up to a balcony spanning its circumference. Another memory is sneaking out of the kid's section in the library to drool over the pictures in National Geographic, a magazine I would later be published in.
You could say that words have played a very big part in my life and I consider myself extremely fortunate to write for a living.

Biography

I started my writing career as a travel writer combining my passion for travel with writing. I'm widely published in local, national and international magazines, newspapers, blogs and books. I run the Fluffy Towel travel blog - for those who love their discoveries as much as their fluffy towels.
I'm the author/co-author/co-producer of nine books (plus a contributor to several travel books) three of which have won IPPY awards in the Independent Book Publishers Awards in New York City. These titles include: Australia's Extra.Ordinary. West, The Artists of the Margaret River Region and Permanent Impressions: a salute to contemporary heroines.
I'm also a copywriter and communications professional specialising in the lifestyle, hospitality, tourism, not-for-profits, the arts and real estate industries.

Recent experience

I have a couple of book projects in the pipeline (too early to share the details) and I currently have several copywriting clients in the real estate, consulting, health, not-for-profits, hospitality and travel industries. I freelance to several magazines, newspapers and blogs. I also run a travel and lifestyle blog called Fluffy Towel - for those who love their discoveries as much as their fluffy towels. www.fluffytowel.com
