So, before you fork out your hard-earned cash on a conversation with me, please do take a look at what's already available.
If you've devoured all of that and still want something that's tailored for you, I'm happy to arrange a coaching session at a mutually agreeable time.

NEWSLETTER UPDATES: Sign up for The Editorial Letter. I'll email you with information about my latest written and audio content as well as tools that make our writing and editing lives easier.

30 minutes: £149
1 hour: £249
The consultation takes place over Zoom because it's free for both of us. I'm based in the UK, but you might not be. This means we can speak to each other without worrying about hefty call charges.
If you're anxious about talking face-to-face, don't worry – I'll turn off the video function, and we'll chat as if we were on the phone ... audio only.
So that we can make the most of our time together, I ask you to complete a questionnaire at booking stage.
This gives me some background on where you are with your business planning and marketing strategy, and ensures the conversation stays focused on pushing your editorial business forward. If you live outside the UK, this clock will show you the time difference between the two of us.
Emailing me I still receive several emails a week from editors (or those considering becoming one). More often than not, the information they're seeking regarding resources, getting started, pricing and finding clients is already available for free on this website.
I ask my colleagues to respect the fact that I have the same number of hours available in the day for editing and running my own business (and spending time with my family) as they do. I therefore charge for individual consultations.
Please dig deep into the available resources before contacting me! If they don't give you what you need, and you still have a query about training, pricing, marketing or branding, a consultation is the next step.
If you need to email me for another reason, use thecontact form.
Phoning me Unless you've booked a consultation at a pre-arranged time, I'd rather you didn't call me. Sorry, but I work full time. If I pick up the phone to chat to an editor, my focus isn't where it should be: on the book file belonging to the client who's hired me!
