About

From blank page to publication

I’m Vicky, and I’ve been in this industry for over twenty years. I’ve worked on all sides of the fence – from writing fiction and non-fiction to editing and proofreading. I’ve even dabbled in publishing. My favourite part of it all, though? Working with authors to help them achieve their goals, their dreams, and watching them make their work shine. I get a buzz from being involved in the process, from seeing a book or a thesis or a blog post go from its raw form and become something brilliant. I take your babies and adopt them as my own, watching them grow from their first tentative steps and develop into a fully published and flourishing adulthood.

I’ve worked with many different types of people over the years, from those writing self-help books to PhD candidates perfecting their dissertations. I’ve helped students with university applications, I’ve worked on blogs and B2B content, and so much more. But what I really champion are those indie authors who are going it alone. I admire people who are passionate about what they create and who are willing to take on an entire industry, from the initial writing right through to marketing. I love working with fiction writers in particular, especially those who demonstrate a creativity that is perhaps restricted in more traditional settings.

I was born and raised in South Wales in the UK, but I now live in a quaint little village in Central France with my super-cute French bulldog, Titi. I have a BA in Philosophy from Cardiff University, and an MA from the University of London. I eat far too much cheese.
