Amy Scott - Senior Editor

Amy is the founder of Scott Editorial. She is a published author with a Master's degree in Creative & Critical Writing and a BA in English Literature. With twenty years of experience editing fiction and non-fiction, she has gained extensive knowledge of both the self-publishing and traditional sections of the industry. Before starting Scott Editorial in 2016, she developed scripts for TV documentaries, was one of the original journalists for the London Progress Journal, and is currently the senior editor for the University of Gloucestershire's Anthology.


Being a colossal fantasy genre fan, Amy is happy to accept anything that delivers the weird and wonderful. She would like to see anything dystopian, especially if it has an apocalyptic theme that goes beyond the norm. She has a keen interest in speculative fiction, Sci-Fi, and historical fiction/non-fiction, especially if it looks at forgotten characters and voices of mythology. If you have an adaptation of any type, whether it be fairytale or mythology, Amy would like to see it. 


In 2022, Amy will be co-hosting the Italian Writer's Retreat, in association with Sunflower Publishing. She will be conducting workshops on manuscript development and how to tackle the editing process, and throughout the week, will be available to all participating writers, for 1:1 guidance and advice.

Connor Briggs - Editor

Connor’s true passion lies in horror. From spooky and gory to the downright weird, he loves it all, with a particular interest in how horror works most effectively. He seeks a deeper understanding of what creates fear in us all. His adoration for the macabre will help shine a light on your ghosts and ghouls. Connor is at home in dark fantasy, science fiction, psychological thrillers, dystopian fantasy, and suspense. 


During his degree in creative writing and critical thinking, Connor specialised in poetry, and through his fascination with creative theory and ekphrasis, he created a poetry portfolio exhibiting his love for both. 


Given his background in poetry, Connor is always looking for new ways to freshen up the langue, explore detailed descriptions, and encourage growth and expansion. While horror is his home, Connor enjoys delving into all forms of fiction that push the boundaries, make us ask questions, and invite taboo. He loves to see characters from underrepresented groups that are not often seen in the protagonist roles.

Dani Edwards - Editor

Dani specialises in a wide range of genres, with a particular interest in horror, juicy drama, and anything with a hint of magic. 


She is also passionate about diversity within novels; she wants to give those who feel underrepresented the chance to see themselves in the books they read. 


After gaining her degree in English with Creative Writing from Falmouth University, Dani worked to hone her skills in many areas such as chapter flow, natural dialogue, and descriptive writing. Having written a poetry anthology for her dissertation, she is keen to help authors develop their poetic voices and skills. 


When writing, she diverts to horror, but in her spare time, she enjoys reading romance, fantasy, and anything that makes the mundanity of life seem exciting. 


Outside of editing Dani is a hip-hop and commercial dancer; she takes every opportunity to choreograph and express herself through her dance.
