A qualified copy-editor with over ten years' freelance experience, I specialise in editing literature, literary criticism, and social, cultural and legal studies texts for postgraduates, academics and academic publishers. I have a first-class honours degree in humanities and experience of English teaching, academic tutoring and academic writing. I often work closely with clients, many of them non-native speakers, focusing on structuring and developing their dissertations and publications. My other area of expertise is fiction, and I work effectively and productively with authors and publishers to develop novels, collections of poetry, memoirs and short stories.
