About me

With over a decade of experience in the publishing industry, I have worked across many aspects of a book’s journey: from idea to manuscript, design to production, distribution to publicity and marketing. I started working at an independent publishing house in 2013 and have since launched a micro press, run an indie-offshoot self-publishing consultancy, and now I work privately with independent authors as they prepare to share their story with the world.

I work exclusively on adult non-fiction titles – predominantly memoir, also covering self-help, personal development, and social commentary.

Unlike many other self-publishing offerings, I personally carry out the services on offer, accompanying authors step by step through the pre-publication journey; it’s me performing each stage of the edit, designing the chapter headings and book cover, and helping to craft an engaging description to convert book browsers into readers. I work closely and collaboratively with my clients, forging relationships built on trust, respect, and honesty.

“Working with Rachel was efficient, enjoyable and easy. She really invests time in understanding an author’s unique personality and motivations, making all her edits and suggestions deeply personal and aligned with your own creative direction. She keeps you motivated when self-doubt creeps in and really encourages you to keep going. She is so kind and attentive and responsive and makes the entire process less daunting. My book would never have been published without Rachel. I would recommend her to any author who wants real, honest advice and who is overwhelmed by the complexity of self-publishing and needs someone to guide them with ease and clarity.”
