Former Teacher – Bringing Clarity to Your Message with Empathy
I started exploring the beautiful world of editing following a long career of teaching children and young people with additional support needs.
I am a member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP) and have completed training with both the CIEP and the Publishing Training Centre. I offer professional proofreading and copyediting services for fiction and non-fiction projects.
Editing of Education-Related Content and Children’s Books
From my teaching life, I bring relevant transferable skills, including empathy, time management and flexibility. My experience lends itself to working with education-related projects and children’s books, including:
- children’s picture books and early readers
- children’s fiction and non-fiction
- educational materials
Fiction Editing
I am keen to support indie authors, especially women writers who might have come to writing later in life. Since my editing career began, I have discovered a passion for writing, so I understand the feelings around your words being judged!
Other Projects
My editorial services cover a range of projects, including business related content and charity work.
I am approachable and conscientious and will work with you to bring out the best in your writing in a thoughtful and sensitive way. Please do get in touch if you think I could be the right person to help with your project.
