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 2023, 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.
