​FICTION
As a writer myself, I know only too well how much time, energy and love has gone into finishing your novel or short story, and how scary it can be to hand your work over to someone else. I'll preserve your voice whilst ensuring things like spelling, punctuation and grammar are up to a high standard, allowing readers to focus on your story without being distracted by inconsistencies or typos.

I always work with genuine care and enthusiasm for your writing, and would love to help you produce a story that's as ready for publication as it possibly can be.

​Genres I work with include:
  • speculative fiction, including fantasy, romantasy, urban fantasy and magical realism
  • folklore and fairytales
  • myth and legend
  • short story collections
  • Young Adult and New Adult
  • literary fiction
  • outdoors and adventure fiction.
