Nina Stanyer
Mentor, Author & Creator of the PAUSE Philosophy™
You know something needs to change.
The hard part is knowing what comes next.
I help women make sense of what’s happening, work out what matters to them, and decide what belongs next.

Where Choice Begins

Stillwater Press
Books and creative works by Nina Stanyer.
Stillwater Press is an independent Australian publishing imprint created by author and mentor Nina Stanyer.
It is the publishing home for books and creative works that invite readers to think more deeply, trust what they know and meet themselves with greater honesty.
The purpose of Stillwater Press
Stillwater Press began with a simple idea: Nina’s books needed somewhere to belong.
Not merely a publisher’s name printed on a copyright page, but a recognisable home for an evolving body of work – one that may include books, reflective resources, oracle deck guidebooks and other creative projects.
Each publication may stand on its own, but all will share a commitment to substance, clarity, thoughtful presentation and respect for the reader.

What Stillwater Press will publish
Stillwater Press is being developed to support Nina’s growing body of written and creative work. Future publications may include books exploring identity, choice and self-trust; practical reflection resources; creative writing; and guidebooks accompanying Nina’s original oracle decks.
The catalogue will grow deliberately. Stillwater Press is interested in creating work worth keeping – not publishing for the sake of filling a shelf.
About Nina

Nina Stanyer is an Australian author and mentor whose work explores identity, agency, self-trust and the often untidy reality of being human.
Stillwater Press gives her written and creative work a publishing home of its own while remaining connected to her wider work at Nina Stanyer.
Do you have a book waiting to be published?
Stillwater Press is currently exploring a small range of practical publishing support services for independent authors.
From preparing a manuscript and understanding ISBNs to navigating print-on-demand, distribution and the many decisions involved in bringing a book into the world, Nina offers clear, grounded guidance shaped by her own publishing experience.
Support is considered individually according to the project and its stage of development.
