Robert Drew – Editor

Hi, I'm Robert. I'm an editor, proofreader and copywriter with more than fifteen years of professional experience.

I've worked in-house for major publishers, including Cambridge University Press and Hachette UK, across a broad range of subject areas, so I know exactly how great books come into being.

My history degree from Cambridge has made me a careful editor, fact-checker and proofreader of non-fiction. I love historical topics – whether political, intellectual, social or cultural – but I am equally adept at editing, copy-editing or proofreading self-help, travel, gift, humour and more. Please take a look at my portfolio for a selection of the kind of books I have guided to publication with pleasure and professionalism.

From full-colour highly illustrated projects to monochrome texts involving scholarly apparatus, I bring to every job my keen eye for detail and clarity of expression. I am also well versed in stylistic conventions in both UK and US English.

At every stage of the publishing process, I can solve your problems in a timely, elegant and courteous manner. Please do get in touch if I can be of service.
