HEY THERE, I'M HOLLIE!
I'm a freelance editor and self-published writer, offering friendly and affordable editorial services. With over three years of experience editing fiction, scripts, academic essays and articles, I'm here to help you take your story to the next level. From my base at home in the UK, I work with authors both locally and internationally. I'm also a member of the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading, where I train regularly.
MY APPROACH
As a self-published writer myself, I know how daunting it can be to share your work with others. That's why my feedback will always be honest but encouraging – there's no nasty red marker pen here. My purpose is to support you and scrub up your writing, so you can create the very best version of your story.
Mystery,
Crime & Thriller
There's nothing I love more than a good ol' twister. As your personal accomplice, I can help test out your timelines, keep your clues consistent and make sure your breadcrumbs and red-herrings are exactly where you need them.
Fantasy & Sci-Fi
New worlds, new technology and new ideas? I'm completely on board. Fantasy can be a mammoth task if you're creating whole new worlds – I can help test your inventions, spot any lore inconsistencies and flesh out those allegories.
Romance
Every good story has key relationships, but none so transformative as those in romance. Whoever your characters are and whomever they (will) love, I can help you test and push the boundaries of their compatibility to drive your story, conveniently avoiding those
plot driven clichés.
