Editing

Having written both my novels while attending a writers workshop led by the author John Givens, I know the value of candid and reliable feedback while a work is in progress and when a first draft is complete.

I offer an editing service for writers at all stages and in all genres. Whether your manuscript is complete and you’re looking for a structural edit, or if you’re just starting out and hoping for pointers on your first few chapters, I will be happy to read your work and offer feedback on your writing and story.

I focus on the areas with which writers in the workshop often struggle: voice and characterisation, plot and pace, writing style and the common mistakes that new writers overlook. I really enjoy working with writers to make their manuscripts as good as they can be.

I also offer advice on seeking an agent based on my own search for representation. I'll help you tailor your submission in order to give your manuscript the best possible chance.

If you would like me to take a look at your work and offer feedback, you can get in touch with me here to outline your project. I’ll get back to you right away.
