Always working with genuine care and enthusiasm for your writing
Philippa Lewis freelance editor
Words have always been my favourite thing; I'm still so excited every day that I get to work with language and books. I really believe in the power of stories, and it's a joy to help writers perfect the story they've been carefully crafting.
​
​At Lexical Peaks, I offer editing services for writers of fiction or outdoors literature. I'm happy to work with publishing companies or independent authors.

Philippa Lewis freelance editor
This was my first experience of working with a professional editor and it couldn’t have been better. Philippa was prompt and clear in her communication and in setting timelines and expectations for what she could do for me. I especially appreciated her supportive tone when it came to certain aspects of my text which were not clear or well written, plus the excellent suggestions and feedback she came back with.  Despite her busy schedule she was able to quickly turn around an 60,000 word manuscript, providing not only style and grammatical edits but also really pertinent observations about the actual plot and the details of quite a complicated narrative which I found really impressive. Overall a really good and pleasant experience, thank you!

What I can help with

Fiction
Genres I work with include young adult and middle grade, literary fiction and speculative fiction.

I'm happy to work on novels, novellas or short stories.
Outdoors Publishing
I specialise in any aspect of outdoors literature: mountaineering history, nature writing,  adventure narratives, guidebooks and anything else in the genre.
​
Philippa made me feel comfortable right from the start and became both a mentor and an inspiration. As a result, my story became far more polished than it would otherwise have been. The work was completed on time, at a reasonable cost and was presented in a highly professional format.
I have no hesitation in recommending Philippa to any established or would-be author looking for competent and friendly yet professional editing services.
