Overview
I have over 10 years editorial experience working for commercial publishers, including HarperCollins and Hachette in the UK. I specialise in structural/developmental edits and line editing across fiction genres: romance, historical fiction, action and adventure, crime and thriller, suspense, cozy crime, emotional women's fiction and many more. I want to bring out the best in your story and am open to having an initial video/phone call to discuss the project and make sure we are both on the same page.
I believe that you deserve to work with the best editor for your project and so please don't hesitate to ask me any questions, or let me know the best way to work with you. I hope that together we will achieve your publication dreams.
