I’m Claire Meadows, founder of Meadows Editorial Services, an Oxfordshire-based editorial agency providing professional copywriting, editing, proofreading and ghostwriting services to businesses, organisations and private clients.

With an MA with Merit in Literature and extensive experience in professional publishing, I bring a combination of editorial expertise, creative writing experience and a genuine passion for words to every project. From website copy and SEO content to articles, marketing materials, books and memoirs, I help clients turn ideas into clear, compelling and polished written content.

I was formerly Editor-in-Chief of luxury arts publication After Nyne Magazine and its partner website, where I worked from 2013 to 2019, overseeing the creation and development of editorial content across the publication. I now also run Celluloid & the City, an online film publication exploring the history of cinema and the Golden Age of Hollywood.

I established Meadows Editorial Services to use that experience to help clients achieve their own creative and business goals. Whether you need copywriting to attract more customers, SEO content to increase your online visibility, professional editing to strengthen your writing, proofreading to give your work a final polish, or ghostwriting to bring your story to life, I can help.

I specialise particularly in projects relating to the arts, culture, hospitality, history and publishing, but I'm equally happy to work with clients across other sectors. Every project begins with understanding what you are trying to achieve, who you want to reach and how your words can help you get there.

As an avid reader and experienced writer, I have a keen eye for what makes written content engaging, effective and enjoyable to read. I believe good editorial work isn't about imposing someone else's voice on your writing. It's about bringing out the best in what is already there.

Anyone can consult AI. With Meadows Editorial Services, you get experience, judgement, creativity and a human understanding of your project.

I believe the best work comes from a genuine relationship between client and editor. I'll work with you to shape content that is clear, engaging and purposeful—and, most importantly, sounds like you.
