Overview
I started in academic publishing at Taylor & Francis. After this, I joined Rebellion Publishing Editor-in-Chief, commissioning and editing books for Solaris and Abaddon Books. I worked on literally hundreds of science fiction, fantasy and horror novels and anthologies, several of which went on to win awards. After a brief stint as a Senior Editor in non-fiction publishing, I have gone full-time freelance and returned to my first publishing love: fiction.
I work closely with the author, seeking to help them to get the best from their story. I know what makes a story tick and have a good sense of the ever-changing world of publishing markets. I seek to make the process as professional, informed, painless and fun as possible.
