Miranda Vaughan Jones – Editor

With over 20 years' experience working with top publishers including Bloomsbury, Penguin and Mensch, I have amassed a wealth of industry knowledge as well as an eye for detail, a passion for language and a key network of professional contacts. I have worked on award-winning books, and with award-winning and bestselling authors both in the UK and US, so I know how to adapt to regional and house styles, and how best to communicate with diverse audiences using a global approach. I know what people in the publishing industry are looking for, and how to make your manuscript stand out in the right way.

I have a particular fondness for commercial fiction, covering crime and thrillers, up-lit and romantic-comedy, as well as the quirky and conceptual. I also have a wealth of experience with memoirs, narrative non-fiction and investigative journalism.

My entire education and career have been dedicated to literature, starting with a BA in English through to the prestigious MA in Creative writing from Goldsmiths. While I have years of experience working with professional authors, I love the process of uncovering new talent and helping writers find their voice.
