Sandy Draper - Editor
Hampshire, United Kingdom
Sandy is a seasoned editor of non-fiction and fiction titles, and has been helping authors 'give birth' to their books for 20 years.
Overview
I worked for more than 10 years in-house in various editorial roles before turning freelance in 2007. I have since worked with DK Books, Watkins Media, Hay House UK, HarperCollins, Summersdale Publishers, AA Publishing, Allison & Busby and Vegetarian Living magazine, as well as self-publishers of fiction and non-fiction titles. I've worked with lots of very talented authors and been kindly described in epithets such as 'literary doula' and 'fairy godmother' but I think commercially savvy 'trusted pair of hands' suits me best.
