Overview
Hello! My name is Molly and I'm a children's book editor.
Most recently, I worked in-house as Senior Editor at Hachette Children's Group, where I remain on a freelance basis. In my career, I've had the privilege of commissioning and publishing a wealth of bestselling titles, specialising in pre-school and picture book titles for children aged 0-6 and additionally working on branded, licensed and non-fiction works. I've been a guest speaker and mentor at the SCBWI Picture Book Retreat as well as a judge for the Jericho Prize Twitter Pitch event.
I can provide developmental editing, copyediting and proofreading services, and am also able to guide aspiring creatives with editorial and writing support from the ground up – helping them to take a seed of an idea to fruition and aiding them on their journey to publication. I'm a meticulous, reliable and approachable editor with a thorough market knowledge rooted in strong industry experience. I understand that every client's needs are different, and I pride on working with each individual to find an approach that suits them and their particular editing needs best – all while making the process a fun and enjoyable one! I hope we can work together.
