Hello.

I am a writer, proofreader and copyeditor living at the foot of the South Downs, UK.

I enjoy working with writers whose topics genuinely interest me, particularly anything related to the Arts, history, nature and conservation, and Social Impact.

I am currently working on my first novella, having had fiction and non-fiction published over the past 20 years.

I'm also an archaeological finds assistant – it’s a wonderful job. I hold a BA in English and Creative Writing, and an MA in Paris Studies: History and Culture.

Back in 2020, I founded our village library. It is powered entirely by donations and is very popular.

I was brought up on a small farm in Sussex. I worked in psychiatric and SEND provisions for 30 years, as well as with a refugee support charity in France and Greece.

That’s enough about me!

I'm so pleased you've made it here. Drop me a line and tell me about your project.
