Hello! I'm a writer, proofreader, and editor based in Cornwall, UK.

​

First and foremost, I am a writer. I adore being by the sea amid all the Cornish gorse and headland, preferably with a book in hand or my laptop by my side. I write my own novels in my spare time, read a LOT of books and I'm proud to be one of the creators of PaperBound Magazine, a publication which celebrates young adult and children's literature.​

​

I have an MA in Writing for Young People from Bath Spa University, where I specialised in children’s and young adult literature, and a BA in Creative Writing from Falmouth University. I'm also a co-author of several Cornwall Writers anthologies, the most recent title being Cornwall: Beneath and Beyond. With a love for all things creative, I work with talented writers who share my ambition to create and promote quality writing and sharp, eye-catching content.

​

I can help you with:

​​

Proofreading (academic journals, lifestyle articles, blogs, non-fiction, memoirs, fiction, and more)

Structural editing on manuscripts

Copy and line edits on manuscripts

Children's and YA manuscript feedback

​

I have worked in-house, freelance and voluntarily for different companies, including The Eden Project, Penguin Random House, Cornish Story magazine, local newspapers, and independent bookshop Lost in Books over the years. I put my all into whatever I do - and can't wait to get started on new projects.

 

My own writing has been shortlisted for Best Novel Opening in Searchlight's Writing for Children Award, longlisted for the Bath Children's Novel Award and Exeter Novel Prize​, and I love championing other writers and shouting about their work, and I have a passion for helping others hone their craft and develop their writing.

 

By working with me, you'll get honest, detailed and respectful feedback that will propel you forward with ease.

​

I also run writing workshops for both children and adults.

Want to work together? I'd love to hear from you.
