'Absolutely brilliant – your work is so detailed, clear and helpful and I really value your editorial recommendations, [which were] based on experience and which felt trustworthy and well thought-through. I’m so impressed with your work and will definitely work with you again!'

I provide copyediting and proofreading services to publishers and independent authors. As a writer myself, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to hand your work over to an editor and I pride myself on my gentle, sensitive, kind and supportive approach.
Being both an editor and a poet, I have developed the ability to focus on the nitty-gritty of your manuscript while also being attentive to the nuance and lyricism of your language and to how your work will look on the page. I will work with you to build a relationship based on trust to ensure a positive and successful outcome.
Particular areas of interest are:
- mental health
- self-help
- self-development
- entrepreneurship
- life stories
- education
- poetry
- children's books
- fiction.
