How can I help?
I’ve been writing since i was old enough to hold a pen.
Now, after 7 years of singing professionally on cruise ships all over the world, I am living my true passion: words, in all their glorious forms. Whether you need help editing your manuscript or you need support for any other kind of wordy masterpiece you may be working on, I’d love to help make it—and you—shine.
A note on current pricing:
My current pricing is heavily discounted due to my ongoing training, which will be completed by Jan 2027. For this reason, my prices will be going up for all bookings for the 1st Jan 2027 onwards, and my report lengths will be lengthening in line with this. My new rates are still significantly below the recommended CIEP minimum and, as an author myself, I want to make my pricing as fair as I can while still supporting myself financially. Editing is an exceptionally time-intensive task, and while I love it, it is still my full-time job.
Many thanks for your understanding.

Please note that a 25% deposit is payable via BACS before my work commences.
I am happy to provide a free, no-obligation sample edit on a 1000-word section from the middle of the manuscript (Full Dissections only)
How does it work?
Drop me a DM, or message through my website (linked in bio). Let me know the service you’re after, the slot (I work monthly) you’d ideally like, and the genre/exact word count of your manuscript
I’ll get in touch to arrange a sample edit (for Full Dissections only). Then I’ll return the edited sample with the offered slot and quote/time frame, along with some terms for you to look through (to protect us both) and my payment info. If you’re happy with everything, go ahead and send over the 25% deposit to secure your slot!
You’re booked in! If something goes awry and you need to postpone, I am happy to roll your deposit over to the next available slot.
When it’s time, you’ll send over your completed manuscript in a Word doc, along with the 2nd 25% of your quoted price.
I will work on your project and keep you updated periodically throughout. You can ask questions/ask for updates if you need to!
Your completed project will be made available to you on the deadline as agreed. Then, once the final 50% of the quoted price is received, I will release it to you. You are welcome to clarify any points made or any questions you have via email during your revision process.
Hopefully you’ll want to leave me an unprompted review :)
