Bio
Martin Cloake
I've known Debra for many years through working on the magazine sub-editing circuit. She is a reliable, dedicated and thorough sub-editor, and an extremely capable editor and team manager with an approach that never fails to get the best out of all the people she works with. She has frequently recommended staff to me, and we often consult on hiring freelancers or recruiting new members of staff. I would have no hesitation in recommending Debra as a very professional and extremely pleasant person to work with.
Helen Jerome
Debra is one of those rare people who manages to be excellent in all their fields: she is a crisp journalist, a creative and hawk-eyed sub-editor, and an intelligent editor. She also understands skills like briefing (from both sides of the fence), deadlines and word counts. I would recommend Debra to anyone. She will not disappoint.
