Writing & Editing
Working with authors and commercial brands to create and develop concepts, handling all stages of the editorial process through to supply of print-ready pdfs.
With many years experience in managing creative teams, commissioning titles and structural editing, I make ideas into reality. From writing and ghostwriting to full editorial support, The Concept Lab can manage projects too big or complex to deal with in house.
“Helen is brilliant to work with and is a terrific author and packager: creative, inventive, solution-focused, precise on deadlines and someone who delivers excellent work. I would be delighted to work with her again and I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
