Overview

In my long publishing career I've worked mostly on non-fiction and educational publishing, from illustrated cookery books, memoirs and self-help, to specialist academic works. I enjoy working with self-publishing authors to hone and polish their beloved books. I work freelance around my family life and my 'other' work: I am a musician, activist, and higher education lecturer.
