Hi, I'm Stephanie. I've been working in the publishing industry more or less continuously since 1986. Armed with an English degree from Oxford University and an MPhil in Publishing Studies from Stirling, I began my career as a desk editor with Hodder and Stoughton. I then spent some time in sales, before establishing myself as a freelance editor and indexer in 1992. And that's what I've been doing since then.
I'm also an author of nearly 30 children's books. I have been published by MacMillan and by Mentor Press and O'Brien Press in Ireland. I have self-published a dozen books on Kindle and Smashwords, and am continuing to add more all the time.
So - I know about editing and I know about self-publishing. This is what makes me so well qualified to help you with your publishing project. I know the industry from both sides - and I'm a darned good editor!
I'm happy to supply references if you'd like to see some. I'll also do a free sample edit on the first 2,000 words or so of your novel so you can see if you like what I do.
