About Helen
About me
I'm an editor, copy-editor and proofreader based near Edinburgh, Scotland, with over 30 years' publishing experience, both in-house and freelance. I've also worked at libraries and museums, developing and managing projects and creating heritage resources. Now, I mainly work with publishers, and with independent and beginning writers who are looking for help preparing their work for submission, or who need an editor to work with on the way to self-publishing.
I specialise in Fantasy fiction (and I recently did an MLitt in it), but as my work history shows, I have a wide range of interests! My true focus is to help bring out the best in your work, so that your writing really shines.
I welcome all enquiries and provide a prompt, friendly, confidential and professional service. For more information, have a look at my website editingforwriters.com, or email me: [email protected].
