Overview
I'm a copy editor with experience editing everything from print magazines and journals, fiction, picture books, creative non-fiction, websites, adverts, and promotional material. My main experience and expertise is in editing music, culture and travel journalism, though after recently graduating from Birkbeck's Creative Writing MA, I've spent the last year working with more fiction, particularly as a copy editor with MIR Online, a well-respected forum for new writing.
I am available to work with your copy at any point along its process – whether you need developmental editing to find your perfect story, line editing for grammar and syntax, mechanical editing for house styles, proofreading, formatting or indexing.
For journalism, my passions and areas of expertise are music, culture and travel.
For fiction, my passions and areas of expertise are children's picture books, humour and magical realism – the quirkier, the better!
