Thanks for dropping by! My name is Adolfo Aranjuez and I’m an editor, writer, speaker and dancer with almost two decades of experience across the Australian literary and creative sectors.
As I currently split my time between Melbourne, Australia, and Strasbourg, France, I’ve transitioned to full-time freelancing. Over my career, my tenured editorial roles have included: Publication Editor at Liminal, a literary platform that supports and showcases the work of creatives of colour; Publications & Audience Development Manager at the Melbourne International Film Festival; Editor of Metro, Australia’s oldest film and media journal (sadly now defunct); and Editor-in-Chief of the sexuality and gender magazine Archer. Meanwhile, my freelance editorial clients include various book publishers, arts institutions, literary organisations and education companies.
Besides overseeing publications and projects, I write essays, criticism and poetry, and regularly speak and teach at festivals and arts events, tackling topics such as screen culture, pop culture and politics; race, queer and mental-health issues; language, multilingualism and literature; and the creative industries. With my extensive background, I’m also often called on to act as judge, mentor or consultant for arts initiatives, grants and awards. Lastly, I’m a dancer and movement artist known for my ‘collisions’ of words and choreography.
