Mentoring

I offer a mentoring programme which is curated to suit the needs of each writer. Meetings can be in person at a central London location or online; alternatively, I can provide written commentary in response to a series of submissions from the work-in-progress.

Editorial advice

This can range from reading the manuscript and providing a critical overview to offering a more detailed edit.

Publication/ Submissions

I will help compile a submission letter, book synopsis and first chapters when the novel or memoir is ready to be sent to an agent or publisher. I am also available for face-to-face or virtual consultation to discuss publishing options.

For publishers, agents and scouts

I am a quick and experienced reader of agented submissions with a long track record reading for HarperCollins as well as for Chatto, Bloomsbury and Virginia Marx.
