Kate Moore
I offer the full range of editing services – from polishing proposals and reviewing first drafts to hands-on structural editing, copyediting and proofreading – and am equally at home working directly with authors or liaising with in-house editors.
I have a vast range of experience across multiple genres and edit fiction and non-fiction books. I specialise, however, in commercial non-fiction, including biography, gift, humour and history.
You can read testimonials from my authors.
Working with authors to make their book the best that it can be
is one of the greatest joys of my job.
