Victoria Taylor – Editor

Creative and organised book editor with more than 15 years of experience on children's and adult's non-fiction. Former Senior Editor at DK.

Overview

I'm an enthusiastic, flexible and conscientious editor with 15 years of experience in children's and adult's non fiction and educational publishing.

Most of my experience has been on licensed reference titles (working closely with LEGO, Lucasfilm, Disney, Marvel). Recently, I have been working on a freelance basis proofreading ELT resources for adults.

I love to get stuck into a new project and make texts the best that they can be!
