Hello and thanks for visiting my page.
I am a freelance editor, author and chairperson of literary events. I am a member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading (CIEP), the Society of Authors and the Crime Writers Association (CWA).
I have proofread and edited many books ranging from crime fiction to comedy (see website for further details) for publishers such as Bloodhound Books and for debut authors.
I am the bestselling author of A Murder Of Crows and I also write science fiction, literary fiction and horror so I have a good all round knowledge of what an author or publisher requires when they send me a manuscript. My training with the CIEP also means that I can edit non-fiction too.
I always respond to enquiries promptly and work to an agreed budget. I have never missed a deadline and usually complete proofreads/edits ahead of schedule.
Services include:
- Hardcopy, Word and PDF proofreading/editing
- Structural editing
- Critiques for fiction
- Helping to develop house styles for companies
- Using BSI symbols
- Online research
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any questions you may have.
Thank you.
