I'm really glad I hired Georgina to look at the first few chapters of my novel. It's clear that she has strong knowledge of grammar and the way fiction should work, and her change and notes were invaluable. I'd recommend Georgina for any similar projects and would definitely hire her again if I ever attempt another novel. Thanks!

Arty the Bear and his friends love to help young children with their worries. This book is ideal for young children and encourages family discussions about topics such as cyber bullying, feeling down or lonely, being underconfident and other things that may be hard to broach. I edited, liaised directly with the designer, and proofread.

The third novel in the Nelson Leatherby trilogy, Hoof Beat invites the reader into the world of horses and their human handlers, while battling corruption. My work involved proof-editing and liaising directly with the author.
