Timeline
Her second collection of poems, Tumble, won the Mary and Peter Biggs Award for Poetry at the 2022 Ockham New Zealand Book Awards. Judge Saradha Koirala said of Preston's work: "Simply written, yet dramatic and powerfully eloquent, each poem in this book is a banger." Reviewer Chris Tse had predicted it would win the top prize in advance of the ceremony, describing it as "a wide-ranging collection that traces the paths we take in life, and reflects on the experiences and wisdom we gain from our travels".
She was the editor of takahē magazine from 2014 to 2016. Together with James Norcliffe, she was the editor of an anthology of earthquake poems written shortly after the 2010 Canterbury earthquake and subsequent earthquakes, titled Leaving the Red Zone and published in 2016. She has said that the experience of the Canterbury earthquakes led to her and her students writing many poems. She has also edited a number of anthologies for the New Zealand Poetry Society.
Her first collection of poems, The Summer King, was published in 2008. It won the inaugural Kathleen Grattan Award for the best original collection of poetry by a New Zealand or Pacific resident or citizen, and the Mary Gilmore Award for the best first collection by an Australian poet. The poems in the collection were mainly produced during her studies at the University of Glamorgan, and its publication by Otago University Press was part of the Kathleen Grattan Award. The Waikato Times described it as a "dazzling debut", with her poems "beautifully worked, insightful, emotionally gentle yet unsettling".
