In‑Home Author Support

A Legacy of Trust, Experience & Author Success

A Legacy of Care

It has been a privilege to support authors through this deeply personal approach.

Among them, the late Robert McCullough, who was one of the first to embrace our in-home author support in bringing his work to publication.

It was a genuine honour to assist in realising his publishing vision.

A highly respected figure in Australian sport, Robert made a lasting contribution to disability athletics and leadership.

His legacy continues to inspire, and we are proud to have played a part in bringing his work to life.

Julie McGregor, Love of Books founder and CEO, supports Robert McCullough in his home as he publishes his manuscript "In Pursuit of Achievement - through making things happen," from beginning to completion.

During my years with Love of Books, I had the privilege of helping over one thousand authors bring their stories to life. Some journeys touched me more deeply than others. Helping this author achieve his lifelong dream of seeing his book published was a truly special experience and a reminder that every book represents far more than words on a page. It represents a legacy, a life story, and something meaningful to leave behind.

What has always meant the most to me is the appreciation, trust, and friendship shown by the authors I have worked with over the years. The heartfelt letters, testimonials, referrals, and kind words remain among the greatest rewards of my publishing career. Knowing that I was able to help authors fulfil lifelong dreams and see the joy on their faces when they held their finished books is something I will always treasure. I remain incredibly proud to have played a small part in helping so many authors realise their publishing dreams and am deeply grateful for the trust they placed in me.

We all have a unique story to tell. We each have invaluable life experiences. We have treasured memories, the building blocks that give us substance and make us alive. We have experienced change, the birth of a child, the death of a loved one or the founding of our town. The rise of our organisations and the development or destruction of our communities.
