Debut Authors

For debut authors, the first step is often knowing what your manuscript actually needs. Our Manuscript Assessment gives you a professional, editor-led review of your draft, highlighting what is working, what needs attention, and the clearest next steps before you invest in editing or publication support. It is ideal if you want honest guidance, a structured action plan, and a clearer sense of whether your book is ready to move forward.

For debut authors who want more comprehensive support, The New Author Pathway provides an exclusive, editor-led, one-to-one journey from draft manuscript to self-published book. This 6-month pathway includes professional editorial guidance, staged manuscript support and practical preparation for publication, helping first-time authors move through the process with confidence while retaining full control of their book, rights, royalties and decisions.

Published Authors

For published authors, our support focuses on strengthening your next book, refreshing an existing manuscript, or helping you move forward with greater editorial clarity. Whether you have already self-published, worked with a publisher, or are preparing a new edition, we provide professional manuscript assessment, editing and practical publishing guidance tailored to where you are now.

This service is ideal for authors who already understand the basics of publication but want a more polished, confident and professionally prepared book. We can help identify structural issues, sharpen the writing, improve flow and readability, and ensure your next publication reflects the standard you want attached to your name.

The Guardianship Begins

The debut novel in The Guardians of The Mythical Realms series.

Across Britain and Ireland, strange adventures are beginning. In the Highlands of Scotland, faeries must defend their glen from Trolls. Beneath Tenby Castle, a lonely Fire Dragon waits in the dark. In Ireland, a four-leaf clover leads to a Leprechaun with secrets to keep, while in Cornwall two boys stumble into the hidden world of the Pixies and learn they are among five children chosen as the new Guardians of the Mythical Realms. But with Trolls growing bolder, one Guardian still missing, and danger rising before the Equinox, time is running out.

The perfect new read for your 7-10-year-olds!

Starting Over Over Sixty

Starting Over Over Sixty

This book is for the woman over sixty who has decided that the rest of her life belongs to her, and who intends to claim it, own it and redesign it as she chooses.

It’s for the woman who is ready to say No without explanation. No to expectations that are not her own, No to outdated ideas about age, and No to attitudes about what she should be doing, wanting, wearing, saying, accepting or giving up.
