About me

As a book editor, I've worked for Scholastic Children's Books, Floris Books, Canongate, Black & White and Faber & Faber.

I'm the director of The Lighthouse Children's Literary Consultancy which gives editorial feedback and advice to new authors.

I write poetry too, and some of my work can be found here: http://www.scottishpoetrylibrary.org.uk/poetry/poets/sarah-stewart
