About me

Since 1993, I have been providing independent freelance publishing support services from my fully equipped home in north London. My clients range from traditional publishers, design agencies and art directors to clients who may have little direct experience in publishing or the necessary in-house skills, facilities or key personnel.

My services can be split into three core areas:

Publishing support services for book design, page layout and typesetting, template design and consultancy. I specialise in long and technically demanding projects, database and XML publishing. I also provide companies with help in developing more streamlined publishing processes through combination of analysing workflows, designing templates and scripts, and providing instructions and training.

Marketing support services for creating marketing collateral and web sites;

Technical authoring services for creating technical manuals and localisation into multiple languages.

With the increased demand of ePUB formats for iPad and Smart phones, I am now able to offer electronic publishing as a service.

If you are interested in further details of my services or have a project you would like to discuss, please do not hesitate to get in touch for a free evaluation and quote.
