2013: I am now working in-house as Senior Commissioning Editor at Floris Books, where I welcome manuscripts for children's books set in Scotland. I am unable to take on freelance editing at present, but please contact me, using the form on this website, about literary consultancy. I am especially happy to talk to groups about writing, publishing, children's literature and narrative.
I am an extensively trained, experienced book editor offering freelance structural editing, copyediting, proofreading and manuscript assessment.
I specialise in:
Literary fiction
Genre fiction
Trade non-fiction, especially narrative non-fiction
Re-working academic writing for a broader audience
I also work as a literary consultant, offering workshops, teaching, mentoring and research. Click on the literary consultancy link, above left, to learn more.
