Overview
Once upon a time, there was a little boy who loved books more than anything else – especially at bedtime, before he went to sleep.
However, every so often, he sensed something was very wrong at story time and would pipe up in a little voice:
"Mummy – I think you missed a word.”
Yep, I was destined to be an editor. My love of words has sustained me my whole life, giving me a degree in English Literature from Cardiff University, a twenty-year career spanning all aspects of written media and publishing (print and online) in multiple continents, and a lifestyle that enables me to balance my passion for words with caring for my two kids.
My first love is and always has been fiction: I love working with fiction authors and publishers, particularly in science fiction, fantasy, speculative fiction, crime fiction and horror. I have edited a wide range of novels for publishers including Titan Books, and have proofread and copyedited books associated with franchises including Alien, Predator, Marvel Comics, Firefly, Star Trek and Conan the Barbarian, as well as several movie novelisations.
What you'll get when you work with me:
Two decades of writing, editorial and proofreading experience.
Fast, responsive turnaround times to suit your schedule.
Meticulous work: every project receives minimum two passes (soft and hard copy).
Expertise in UK, US, Australian English and associated style guides (including client style guides).
Accurate identification of typographical/design errors and issues.
