Overview
I'm a passionate and creative editor of several series of bestselling series of books, ranging from fiction about football to sweary activity books. As a true lover of words, I turn ideas into masterpieces, whether its through copyediting an origin story for a Marvel superhero to proofreading a Beano Joke Book. I've worked for several years for a range of UK-based publishing houses such as Bonnier Books UK and Pan Macmillan, I'm full of industry skills, knowledge and know-how.
I have worked with some of the best brands in the business, from Disney to Beano, so you and your work will be in very safe hands. One of my top priorities is keeping you in the loop while we work together to create something you'll be proud of.
What can I offer?
I offer a range of editorial services, usually a combination of some of the following:
- development (generating ideas, feedback on ideas)
- editing (proofreading, copy editing, line editing, structural edits)
- writing (copy writing, ghostwriting, sales and marketing materials)
I know that every manuscript is unique, and as such, I like to offer a tailored approach to each project. Get in touch to see how I can help you.
