I specialise in working on commercial fiction. If you have written a gripping story with plot and character at its heart, I can help you make your story the best it can be, and get it ready for publication either as an independent writer (self-publishing) or on submission to an agent or publisher.

Genres I work on include: women’s fiction, crime and thrillers of all kinds, historical fiction and romantic comedy.
