About

Professional writer & proofreader specializing in fiction, YA, and story-driven projects.

I’m a professional writer, editor, and proofreader who helps authors and creatives refine their work until it feels effortless to read and impossible to put down. My background spans fiction, nonfiction, and editorial content, with a special focus on young adult literature, creative storytelling, and narrative flow.

Over the years, I’ve developed a process that blends precision with empathy. I approach every project not just as an editor, but as a storyteller who understands pacing, voice, and emotion. Whether I’m polishing a manuscript, tightening dialogue, or clarifying structure, my goal is to preserve your tone while elevating the clarity and rhythm of your writing.

My clients range from first-time authors and indie publishers to entrepreneurs and educators who need creative copy that reads smoothly and connects authentically. I’ve also published more than twenty essays on Medium exploring literature, creativity, and the evolving relationship between writers and technology.

I believe good editing is invisible — it brings out what’s best in your work without changing its heartbeat. If you care about language, storytelling, and the emotional impact of your words, we’ll work well together.

Specialties: fiction editing, young adult literature, line and developmental editing, proofreading, creative writing, and narrative consulting.

Let’s make your story shine.

Work Terms

I’m available for freelance writing and editing projects Monday to Friday (UK time), with flexible hours to accommodate international clients. Most small projects are completed within 3–5 business days, while full manuscripts are scheduled individually.

Payment is managed securely through Guru’s SafePay system. For larger or multi-stage projects, I prefer milestone payments based on deliverables — for example, per chapter or per word count.

Communication is key: I’m happy to discuss projects via Guru messages or mail, and I always provide progress updates at each stage. Every project includes at least one round of feedback or clarification to ensure you’re completely satisfied with the final result.

My goal is to create a smooth, professional collaboration that leaves you with refined, publication-ready work — and confidence in every word.
