Hannah Smith – Editor

A Publisher specialising in commercial romance, historical and women's fiction for Penguin Random House. I love both the strategic and editorial side of publishing, getting to work closely with authors, I always aim to bring out the best in your work. I work with my authors throughout the editorial process, across editorial letters outlining bigger structural changes - plot, pace, characterisation etc. - to line-edits which take a more granular approach to reviewing the story at an inline level.

Drawing on years of experience, and numerous bestsellers across digital and print publishing, I've helped authors achieve magnificent reviews on Goodreads and Amazon. I'm here to help work manuscripts into their best possible shape ahead of publication or submission and querying.

Having worked across a number of bestselling authors, both internationally and domestically, my aim is to work collaboratively with authors to make their work the best it can be. With an eye for creating bestsellers I can offer advice on developmental edits, copy-editing and publishing strategy.
