Hello, I'm Aimee,

romance editing specialist, writing coach, tutor and author of Top Tropes: A Romance Writer's Guide

I’m here to help you create your best work. I’ll be there to support you throughout the whole process, from outlining to publishing.

My background in education and counselling allows me to teach, encourage, and empathise. I am a fully qualified editor, have a BA in English, and am fully committed to continual professional development.

I am a professional member of the CIEP (the Chartered Institute of Editing & Proofreading) and a member of EPANI, ALLi, and RNA; I have clients across four continents and am equally happy working in UK or US English.

I teach courses for the CIEP: Coaching Skills for Fiction Editors and Editing Romance Fiction, as well as running my own; mentor editors who want to add coaching to their services; provide business coaching to editors and writing coaches, and supervision for other writing coaches.

When I’m not working, I’m either reading with endless mugs of tea, pottering in the garden, working with my menagerie of animals, or trying to get my three teenagers out of bed at a reasonable hour!

PORTFOLIO

Testimonials

Don't just take my word for it!

Aimee is a fantastic editor and I feel very lucky to be part of her flock of authors. I am confident entrusting my books to Aimee as I know she will read them with a sharp eye and offer insightful and constructive feedback on how to take my manuscript to the next level. Aimee is timely with deadlines and understands the pressures of being a self published author. Apposite to this, I would highly recommend her mentoring service as she is passionate about offering a holistic and supportive approach to authors, whichever stage of their career they may be at. I can’t wait to see what the future working with Aimee will bring and will recommend her to others when and where I can.

I was recommended Aimee Walker’s editorial services by two of my author friends, having had a horrific experience with my previous editor. Aimee is leaps and bounds ahead of any editor I’ve ever come across. Not only is she meticulous, but she is a genuinely lovely person to work with. She answers emails swiftly and is always available to make an appointment with for a Zoom call to bounce ideas off. Hiring Aimee is easily one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I hope we work together for many more years to come.

Aimee is the epitome of the cheerleader you want on your side. In addition to her professionalism and incredible knowledge of the English language, she has a way of setting an author's mind at ease. I'm not sure I ever want to publish another book unless it passes through her eyes first.
