My approach
My approach
Author cheerleader
You rock! You’ve written a novel AND you’re investing in professional editing to knock it into its best shape. Give me a W-H-O-O-P! I know what it’s like to dream of seeing your book on shelves and it means the absolute world that authors trust me to help make that dream a reality. I feel so lucky to do this for a living every day.
You’re here because you don’t just want to publish a book; you want to publish the best darn book you can. I gleaned a lot about writing and publishing from my MA in Novel Writing but the most important thing I learned is that writing a novel is HARD and I have nothing but awe and admiration for you because you did it. I will never stop waving my pompoms for you.
Children’s book champion
As a Children’s Literature grad I’m knowledgable about children’s & YA publishing and as a mum I’m really passionate about raising confident readers and helping young people discover the magic of books. I care a lot about increasing and promoting diversity, LGTBQ+ representation, sensitivity and conscious language in kidlit.
I feel strongly that children and teenagers should be encouraged to read whatever they enjoy, whether it’s comics, choose your own adventures, scary stories or literary fiction, because that’s how they learn to love language and stories. That’s why I want to help you tell your story, because it’s unique and important and might just make somebody fall in love.
Making editing magical
I know handing your manuscript over to an editor can be nerve-wracking, and you’ve still got hard work to do after we’re finished (sorry!). That’s why I’m passionate about making this experience as fun and empowering for you as I can. It’s common to fall out of love with your story after a big project – I’ve been there – but once you’re done with me you’ll go away feeling confident, full of ideas and fired up for the next stage in your publishing journey.
I’m a gentle, supportive children’s book editor who’ll give you advice, resources and warm & fuzzy encouragement that you can put in your pocket and whip out when you’re writing your next draft and your next book.
Indie author cheerleader
You rock! You’ve written a novel AND you’re investing in professional editing to knock it into its best shape. Give me a W-H-O-O-P! The rise of self publishing gets me very excited, because it means indie authors like you get to publish and sell their books and it means lovely readers like me get to read them.
But you’re here because you don’t just want to publish a book; you want to publish the best darn book you can.
