Joy Aimee

Question: Joy, what’s with this constant reinvention?

Answer: Why should Madonna have all the fun?

Joy Aimee is the latest incarnation of Sydney-based writer and creativity coach, Joy Atkin.

The author of So, What’s Today’s Brilliant Excuse? and the soon-to-be released So Where’s My Happy Ever After? Joy is a storyteller who found her voice once she stopped writing advertising copy (despite its laryngitis-inducing effect, Joy is grateful that advertising taught her to be succinct and understand the value of a good headline) and ghost writing books for clients (she’s written six books for others, including Open for Inspection and Black Belt of the Mind.)

Now that she’s no longer a ghost, Joy writes on contemporary themes including love, sexuality, creativity and the power of beliefs in limiting or expanding our lives.

Also a gifted teacher, Joy taught writing classes for many years through Manly-Warringah Community College, Mosman Community College, the Australian Catholic University and privately. She prefers working one-on-one with clients these days and has been privileged to coach many gifted writers, some of whom have gone on to be published internationally. Gulp!Fiction, Joy’s popular online fiction writing course, is available through the NSW Writers Centre and www.writewellwritenow.com. Joy has a Bachelor of Arts degree, Diploma of Teaching, is a Level One Accredited Coach and has qualifications in public speaking.
