EDITING & PRODUCTION

I worked in the independent-publishing sector for over a decade, specialising in print periodicals and nonfiction books.

​I project-managed titles from the pitch or manuscript stage, through editing and design, to the printed product, and coordinated teams of authors, other editors and designers, along with liaising with printers, publicists, distributors and the media.


Having enjoyed my run in periodical and book publishing, I’ve decided to move into editorial-adjacent, producing and curatorial roles in festival and community contexts.
