Here’s a bit more information about me to help you decide if I’m the right fit for you.

I’m a member of the Chartered Institute of Editors and Proofreaders (CIEP). I’ve completed proofreading and copyediting training offered by the CIEP to ensure that I have the knowledge and skills necessary to provide you with a high quality professional service. I’m confident editing and proofreading work that uses UK or US English.

I have more than a decade’s experience as a graphic designer and artist, prior to training as an editor. I can use a broad range of software to create a design that compliments the themes and content of your project.

I’m mad about fiction, especially horror and science fiction. I’m passionate about indie publishing and run my own small press, Kilter & Rammel Publishing, where I publish indie authors as well as my own writing.

I’m a word nerd and love the detail-oriented approach required for proofreading and editing, and I get a great sense of satisfaction from seeing an author happy and confident in what they’re publishing.

I have a BA Hons in Drama, and my love of the written word extends to plays and screenplays. In my twenties, I worked as a technical theatre manager, where I found a great deal of joy supporting the work of others and playing a substantial role in helping to bring their creative ideas to life.

I’m a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community and I’m committed to providing a supportive space for all, regardless of sex, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, age or disability. Everyone’s welcome!

Away from work, you’ll often find me out wandering the hills of the UK and writing my own stories set in the landscapes I explore. Or I’ll be curled up at home with my dog, reading or listening to audiobooks (lots of horror and science fiction, of course, but some fantasy, thrillers and even a bit of queer romance too), before talking about what I’ve read on YouTube. And I make sure to find time for playing some video games as well. As long as I’m having adventures, either in the real world or in fabulous fictional worlds, I’m happy!

I hope to hear from you when you’re ready to take the next step in your publishing journey!
