Marina McCarron – Editor

Editor with twenty years of experience creating detailed manuscript evaluations reports and performing substantive and line editing.

Overview

I hold a Master of Publishing degree and have worked for both North American and UK publishing houses including nine years writing reader reports for Harlequin/Mills and Boon. I have also worked for Atom (Hachette) as well as the digital publishers Endeavour and Lume.

I create excellent, detailed reports broken down into specific categories addressing all aspects of the manuscript, including writing, plotting, characterisation and any issues and inconsistencies. I am a strong, efficient, and insightful substantive and line editor as well.

I specialise in romance, mystery, crime and thriller, contemporary and women's fiction and memoir.
