I am an editor and author with experience working in fiction and nonfiction. I hold an MA in Creative Writing and am currently undertaking a PhD in Creative and Critical Writing, both at UEA. I am also an Associate Tutor on the undergraduate and postgraduate Creative Writing and English Literature courses at UEA.
Previously, I was the Publishing Director at Endeavour Media, and have been a freelance developmental editor, copy editor and proofreader. I have worked with publishing houses from indie literary presses such as Boiler House Press and Weatherglass Books to commercial genre imprints such as Rebellion. This has included work on Pulitzer-winners, Booker-longlistees, BBC Books of the Week, and Amazon top ten bestsellers. I have worked with authors who’ve won the Caine Prize for African Writing and been shortlisted for the Booker International.
As a journalist I have written for Publisher’s Weekly, Time Out and BookBrunch. I’m also an author in my own right – so I understand exactly what your work means to you!

QUALIFIED EDITING FOR EVERY STAGE
I’ve worked across genres – from romance novels to essays on particle physics. However, I specialise in science fiction, fantasy, dystopia, literary fiction and nonfiction. My MA in Ancient History from King’s College London also makes me an excellent editor for historical fiction and popular history.
If you have any queries, please don’t hesitate to get in touch – I’d love to hear from you!
