Overview
I specialise in genre fiction: romance, erotica, crime, fantasy, science-fiction, YA, historical, lit fic, etc. This includes novels, screenplays, plays and short stories as well as experimental forms of fiction.
I have a first-class BA (Hons) degree in English & Film and an MA in Creative Writing, with distinction. I graduated top of my class in both degrees, and was also awarded the University medal on both occasions. The MA programme I attended was heavily genre-focused, hence my specialism.
As a freelance novel editor, I have worked on a range of novels, from traditionally published international best sellers, to indie publications, to debut self-pubs, and most things in between.
I offer developmental editing, focusing on character development, narrative arcs, world-building, structure, plotting. I also offer meticulous proofreading and copy-editing for the final stage of your project as well as mentoring, supporting writers to get from their first draft to their final draft.
I love developing work with debut authors just as much as working with an established writer. I’m personable and friendly and believe that the editor/writer relationship is a special one.
I can’t wait to work with you! Drop me a message and we can get started!
