Overview
As an internationally acclaimed author I know the writing process inside out, and can advise and empathise on every stage. As editor, I bring over ten years' experience in helping writers and prize-winning authors create successful, beautifully crafted narratives.
'Helen is a sensitive and generous reader who has helped me to improve my fiction and nonfiction writing. She has a keen eye for detail, and a strong grasp of the shape of larger projects. She is also a lovely human. I would recommend her wholeheartedly for your ambitious projects, and your dream books.' LAURA JOYCE, author of THE LUMINOL REELS
"Helen continues to have a hugely significant impact on the writing of my first book after reading my first draft. She gives such extensive feedback, taking so much into consideration, with professionalism, direction, and warmth. I have asked Helen to stay on board for my second draft because I feel so safe in this process. I trust Helen, and am beyond grateful for her guidance." JULIA, author of WIDOW'S FIRE (under contract)
Whatever stage you're at, I offer comprehensive feedback on works in progress, helping you gain perspective on issues of plot and structure, and to build vivid, expertly honed sentences. Together we'll engage deeply with your writing, helping you to clarify your ideas and intentions, and make your story the very best that it can be.
Experienced in fiction but looking to build my nonfiction/memoir portfolio.
