Edwin Hill – Editor

Former VP and editorial director at Macmillan Learning and current author the Hester Thursby mystery series and freelance editor.

Overview

After serving as the vice president and editorial director at Macmillan Learning for many years, I turned away from the glamour of academic publishing to focus on writing crime novels. My first book, LITTLE COMFORT, was nominated for an Agatha for best first novel. My second book, THE MISSING ONES, was nominated for both an Agatha and an Edgar. My third book, WATCH HER, publishes soon. I work with writers of any genre, but specialize in fiction, particularly literary, crime, and romance. I look forward to working with you to helping you achieve your goals with your writing, whatever they may be!
