Like all the creative arts, writing can be deeply fulfilling, and also incredibly frustrating. One minute you’re soaring high on the wings of inspiration, the next you’re plunged into a pit of dread and self-doubt as you question every word you’ve ever committed to the page. And seeking professional feedback on your work, while incredibly valuable, can be a potentially daunting prospect.
That’s how I can help. As a CIEP-trained copy-editor I offer a range of editing and feedback options to cater for every price point. With my years of teaching experience I can also provide you with the kind of feedback that will not only help you pinpoint areas for further improvement, but will also boost your confidence as a writer and your belief in the story you want to tell.

From feedback on your outline and character arcs to a detailed review of your completed manuscript, I offer a range of services to help you take your novel from initial plan to final draft. Or perhaps you’re simply feeling a little unsure about where to start with your line edits? Book a ‘snapshot copy-edit’ to help highlight areas for you to focus on.
Getting a literary agent is a notoriously competitive process and a second pair of eyes on your submission package will be invaluable in helping you stand out from the crowd. Book a content review, copy-edit, or proofread of your query letter, synopsis, and opening chapters to ensure that the work you send out is going to tick all the ‘agent boxes’.
If you’re building your career as a self-published author, getting a professional copy-edit or proofread of your manuscript is an essential step in producing a high-quality end product. I offer both services, as well as a more economical option for those who would simply like a knowledgeable professional to read their work for the most obvious errors.
Every manuscript is different, every writer unique. If you’d like something more specifically tailored to your needs, such as a copy-edit or manuscript review with a narrower focus, do get in touch with me to discuss it further and get a quote.
