Commercial Publishing
Based in the south west, I provide expert manuscript editing services, copy editing and proofreading for writers of all genres and experience levels. My goal is to help you refine your work, enhance clarity and flow and ensure your novel is ready for submission or self-publication. I love all forms of storytelling and a have sharp editorial eye. My aim is to work collaboratively with you to bring out the best in your writing.
Editing is a vital step in the novel-writing process. However, spotting issues in your own manuscript can be challenging. Whether it’s line editing, structural edits or final proofreading; a fresh and experienced perspective makes all the difference.
I have a wealth of knowledge both as an author and an editor when it comes to preparing a novel for submission. My writing journey has given me real world perspective on the realities of the commercial publishing world and what it takes to get your book published.
You need a clean, polished manuscript, a compelling cover letter and a synopsis…that doesn’t rival the word count of your book!
I am here to help you through every stage. Whether you’ve just started on your writing journey and need support, either one-to-one or by joining a workshop, or you’re halfway through your novel and stuck, plagued by writers’ block…or you’re at the ‘end’, but don’t know what to do next - that’s where I come in. I will invest my time and energy into your book, your characters and your story. It’s personal to you, and so it’s personal to me.
Get started today.
