Cameron-Rose Neal – Editor

Experienced fiction editor helping authors refine their craft, strengthen their stories and write with both confidence and intention.

Overview

~ Thank you for taking a look at my profile! Authors: please kindly note that I am currently booked until July 2026 and am taking bookings from then onwards. ~

With extensive experience in creating, editing and publishing content across a diverse range of sectors, I specialise in elevating your writing.

As both an editor and writer, I understand the importance of preserving your unique voice while enhancing the quality of your work. My role is to refine your writing without overshadowing your distinctive style.

Maintaining your tone and voice is my foremost priority throughout the editing process. Through collaboration, I aim to ensure your words resonate powerfully by offering tailored, constructive advice and support. Whether you need help polishing grammar, punctuation and flow, or want in-depth feedback on story structure and character development, I can help.

My portfolio spans short and long fiction as well as non-fiction. I’m passionate about engaging diverse readerships through meaningful narratives. I’m particularly drawn to writing that challenges the status quo, explores complex characters and isn’t afraid of daring twists. While I work across genres, my specialisms are literary fiction (including women’s fiction), romance and fantasy.

I offer developmental editing, copy/line editing and proofreading. Each service is meticulously tailored to your specific needs—from refining language and flow to exploring structure, tone and character depth. My goal is to enrich your writing while helping you grow as an author.

I’d love the opportunity to work with you.

Work experience

Self-employed

Jan, 2025 — Present
With extensive editorial knowledge, I decided to create my own company, Cameo Editing. As a writer, I understand what it is like to fuel your creative projects with passion and then feel the wary shift when transitioning to the editorial process of a story, and this has provided me with valuable insights that I bring to my editorial approach. I work with writers to evaluate and improve their stories and am incredibly passionate about ensuring this process remains as fun and stress-free as possible. I help not only to refine manuscripts but also to aid the growth of authors' written craft, fuelling their skill set for any future projects they may undertake. Services include developmental editing, copy/line editing and proofreading.

Igloo Books Ltd. (Bonnier Books)

Apr, 2023 — Present
I am responsible for editing and project managing the editorial process for upcoming titles. I work with authors and artists to create visually stunning, engaging and on-trend content in addition to handling the editorial, itself. This involves utilising a strong comprehension of the English language to refine word choice, tone, clarity, message and the overall impact of writing to benefit a chosen market. In this regard, I work to complete edits in both British and American English where required.

QA Ltd.

Feb, 2022 — Mar, 2023 (about 1 year)
Through proofreading and copy editing the content for big-name clients, my role was to perfect the content and ensure the quality of all material was flawless while maintaining order in the publishing process and content. With a key focus on message and clarity, our team of editors ensured that all content met our clients' high standards and, therefore, grew familiar with working with multiple editorial style guides for the benefit of this.

Jan, 2021 — Feb, 2022 (about 1 year)
I was responsible for creating the content for the website, including blogs and creative enhancements, while maintaining various social media platforms. Additionally, I was solely responsible for ensuring the quality of our client's internal documentation and led the editorial process for our client's educational material, which was published privately. This included editorial improvements to the written word to cover clarity, conciseness, tone, flow and more.

Cameron is fantastic! She's punctual, communicative, and provided excellent insight into my manuscript. Each comment was well thought out and descriptive. I thoroughly enjoyed working Cameron, intend to work with her in the future, and would recommend her for developmental as well as line edits.

Cameron is the best editor I could have asked for. I came to her with a story I was incredibly passionate about, though it was rough around the edges. Cameron helped transform that story into a book of far greater quality than I could have ever imagined. Cameron went above and beyond—not only by...
