Our Editorial Team Leaders

We use a number of editors, picked for their suitability for their work. Those listed below are a selection of our editorial team leaders.

Keirsten Clark

Keirsten is a fellow of The Royal Society of Arts and worked for Curtis Brown for a number of years (where in addition to her normal role - she oversaw the unsolicited manuscripts for the book department) before becoming frustrated by the time constraints she faced, meaning she was unable to give authors any feedback on their writing. Having originally left Curtis Brown to pursue a degree at Cambridge University in English Literature and her own writing, she decided, after a few approaches from fellow writers that her time would be best employed using her contacts to give writers the help they needed.

Rob Tetlow

Rob also started life at Curtis Brown and is our main script-reader for TV, film and theatre. Rob currently works for the British Independent Film Awards and for Cuba Pictures - an independent production and film development company. Rob has himself written, directed and produced short films, of which the most recent was screened at the Portobello Film Festival. Rob worked for Feelgood Fiction as a series script editor and researcher for a BAFTA winning and International Emmy Award nominated series for ITV.
