I have a number of specialisms to interest non-fiction publishers and authors who are looking for a copy-editor or proofreader with knowledge of a particular subject.
These include: Photography and visual culture – I recently gained a first-class honours degree in photography International development – I studied the subject at degree level Social sciences – also studied at degree level Sport – at different times during my career in journalism, I was sports editor of two provincial dailies, assistant editor of an American football paper, chief sports sub-editor and a football writer Journalism – I have held several senior editorial positions at newspapers, including deputy editor and assistant editor Spain – I have strong knowledge of the country, its history and culture, and I have been studying the language for several years.
I am also here for first-time authors who maybe are nervous about contacting an editor for the first time. I'm friendly, easy to work with and enjoy encouraging fresh talent.
