As well as a children’s author I’m an experienced editor, offering consultations and a number of editorial services for children’s fiction from chapter books up to young adult:
Project Management I’ll take on the day-to-day management of your book projects from acquisition to press date.
Developmental Editing Using my experience as an in-house editor, and as an award-shortlisted author, I will provide detailed notes to make your plot and characters shine, as the story deserves.
Line Editing I will read through your manuscript, edit and present queries in order to make it as tight as possible, and ready to go to the copy edit stage.
Storylining In addition to my own authored work, I spent three years as Senior Editor at the inclusive fiction studio Storymix where I developed characters and storylines, which were then commissioned and acquired. I am available to develop your IP and in-house commissions.
Authenticity Reads (for Black British and Caribbean British experience)
