About me
I’m a freelance editor, providing professional and supportive feedback for authors.
From the time I could pick up a pen, I have been writing. However, it wasn’t until I started exchanging manuscripts with peers, that I found my love for editing. Since then, I have been through a mentorship programme, and have been providing professional editing for fiction authors for three years. I am also an Associate Editor for Inspired Creative Co.

How I work
Whether you're looking to query your project, self publish or just want to improve your craft, my job as an editor is to give you constructive and supportive feedback, providing you with all the tools you need to make your story the best it can be.
Every author is different, and every book is different. Therefore, I keep my approach flexible to suit your and your book. As a writer, I deeply appreciate the power of an edit, both in the advice given and the way it’s given. That’s why support is at the core of all my services – I don’t just want you to have suggestions on ways to improve your work, I want you to go away inspired and confident in your skills.
Behind the pen
I am owned by two cats. Neo (pictured) and Nel who ensure I'm kept on the straight narrow. Their editing advice is highly suspect, however.
Running keeps me going. I've lost count of the amount of plot holes I've navigated, problems solved and characters corralled whilst pounding South London's pavements.
As well as two fur babies, I also have a real baby. She also keeps me on my toes. Editing advice yet to come.
Drink of choice: red wine. A large one preferably. Bonus points if served with olives and cheese.
