About Matthew
I'm an experienced editorial professional who can support you on your journey to publication. I've worked on more than 50 fiction and non-fiction titles in various genres, many of which were translated Chinese-to-English works.
I offer the following services to publishers and independent authors:
- line/copy editing
- proofreading
- typesetting (Vellum)
- ebook production
- publishing
- research
In addition to books, I have extensive experience editing/writing product descriptions, academic papers, news summaries, website copy, blogs, Wikipedia pages, and tenders.
I was formerly a BBC Radio researcher, and I publish impossible crime and locked-room mystery fiction.
