We are the UK’s longest-established editorial consultancy, pioneering manuscript assessment, and advocating for industry-level editing for all writers.
We help writers to develop your work. Our writers have gone on to secure accolades: major book deals, theatre tours, poetry prizes, digital serialisation, and more. Most importantly, our writers tell us they gain confidence, momentum, and clarity working with us. We have been working with writers for thirty years.
We offer industry-recommended editing services, one to one mentoring, writer coaching, a membership community, and free resources to writers at all levels. We’d love to help you take your next best step.
So far, TLC has supported over 13,500 writers. Will you be one of them?
