About me
‘Cressida Downing has assisted me for seven years assessing typescripts and proofs with a view to their publication. Her reports are concise, insightful and highly intelligent.’
Alan Samson – Publisher, Weidenfeld and Nicolson.
I’ve had 20 years of experience in publishing and bookselling.
I’ve been a freelancer for 12 years for a variety of professional clients (including literary agents, publishers, Reader’s Digest, and literary scouts), and aspiring authors.
I am a regular blogger for the Writers’ and Artists’ Yearbook (www.writersandartists.co.uk) and have run workshops with the Editor. I will be running more workshops in the near future.
As a flexible worker, I can work within tight time constraints, and concentrate on areas that are appropriate to your needs.
I have recently been working in a lively and inspiring independent local bookshop, Toppings in Ely.
A passionate reader, I live in East Anglia with two children, one cat, and one husband.
