Little Owl exists because stories matter.
Stories shape our world. And, when the right stories are told well, they can make our world a better, kinder place.
We’re Kimberley and Claire: editors, writers, sisters and the people you talk to when you’re working with Little Owl. Between us, we’ve got over 15 years’ combined experience working with book publishers, magazine publishers, film festivals, universities and a wide range of corporate and private clients.
Our services include anything involving words: writing, ghostwriting, structural editing, copy-editing, sub-editing, proof-reading and copy-writing. Want to know more? Get in touch.
