I am a respected editor and subeditor with over 30 years’ experience in book and magazine publishing, mainly in the fields of art, architecture and film. I work in Word, InDesign and Quark Xpress.

I have also undertaken copywriting projects for architects, educational providers and others.

Here are a couple of sample projects:

Royal Opera House Education: Working with You
I devised the idea for this information pack, then wrote the copy and worked with ROH staff and the designers to pull it all together.
