ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Anna. Mother, writer, photographer, animal lover and general maker of mayhem! I have loved reading and writing since childhood, and I couldn’t be without a book!
I have written three books, the first of which is about to be sent to various small publishers, just to see if I'm good enough to make it to print!
But it’s not about the money for me. It’s about the joy of reading, helping others to make their manuscript as perfect as it can be, so that when it hits the shelves, it’s not just a book, it’s a work of art.
Helping people is what I love doing best. I spent thirty three years as a carer, before succumbing to disability. But I'm not done helping people yet!
I don’t do selfies, but here’s an example of my photographs. I spend a lot of time in nature, and also museums, art galleries, bookshops, and castles!
I’m always trying to better my knowledge, so I’ve added certificates of courses I’ve done so far, and will add more as I progress.
So here I am, ready to help you and not charge the earth!

A couple of weeks ago, I posted on Threads that I was seeking a couple of beta readers for my manuscript, The Pearl of Delphine. One of the beta readers who reached out to me was Anna Cartwright. Not only did Anna read my novel in a timely manner, the critique she gave about my work was spot on. Going forward, I'm happy to implement many of the suggestions she gave me concerning pacing, character traits, and narrative prose. It's wonderful to know what's working and what still needs work within your novel, and I highly recommend Anna for anyone looking for a kind, professional beta reader to take their story to the next level.
