Editing, writing and publishing – without the headaches.
Words are powerful – when they behave. Whether you’re crafting a book, shaping an exhibition catalogue or trying to wrangle a manuscript that currently resembles a crime scene, I can help.
With over 15 years in editorial and publishing, I work with authors, publishers and institutions to bring clarity, structure and a keen critical eye to their projects. From deep developmental editing to final polish, I make sure your words don’t just look good on the page – they work hard, sound great and actually get read.
Publishing & Editorial Consulting
Editorial & Publishing Strategy
Not sure where to start? Need a plan? I help organisations figure out their publishing goals, shape editorial processes and ensure their books (or book-ish projects) are actually achievable.
Day Rate for Advisory Work
Need flexible, expert editorial support? I’m available for consulting on publishing strategy, content planning and whatever editorial dilemmas you’re wrestling with.
Editorial Direction & Management
Editorial Project Management
If you need someone to keep the editorial ship afloat – coordinating writers, editors, designers and printers – I can handle the chaos so you don’t have to.
Editing & Book Development
Book Development & Editorial Collaboration
You’ve got a manuscript, an idea or possibly just a chaotic collection of notes – let’s turn it into something polished, compelling and worth reading. I’ll work with you to refine structure, tighten prose and elevate your work while keeping your voice at the forefront.
Structural & Stylistic Editing
Think of this as a deep-tissue massage for your manuscript – firm but fair, designed to release tension, untangle knots and leave things in far better shape than before.
Manuscript Assessment (Editorial Report)
Not ready for full editing but need a roadmap? I’ll provide a detailed critique of your manuscript’s strengths, weaknesses and next steps – without sugarcoating, but with just enough encouragement to keep you going.
Copyediting & Proofreading
Every comma in its place, every sentence sleek and stylish. I’ll fine-tune grammar, consistency and clarity so your writing shines – whether it’s a book, an exhibition catalogue or an academic tome that needs a little life breathed into it.
Exhibition & Catalogue Editing
Exhibition Text & Interpretation Editing
From wall panels and object labels to gallery guides and exhibition essays, I ensure your interpretive text is clear, engaging and accessible to a broad audience – without sacrificing nuance or depth.
Exhibition Catalogue Editing
Exhibition books are a beast of their own. I specialise in structuring content so it flows beautifully with the design, ensuring the text is as captivating as the visuals. Whether you need a light copyedit or full structural overhaul, I’ll make sure your catalogue reads as well as it looks.
Bonus: Editorial Design & Layout
Graphic Design
Because sometimes words need a little visual flair. While editing is my main gig, I also have experience in editorial design and layout – so if your book, catalogue or publication needs some extra polish, I can help ensure the visuals and text work together seamlessly. Think of it as the cherry on top of a well-crafted editorial sundae. 🍒
