Welcome Editor Donna Hillyer!

We’re delighted to welcome Donna Hillyer to our list of editors! Donna has nearly twenty years' experience in book publishing. Originally from Ireland, she grew up in a culture rich with folklore, storytelling and imagination. After being lured away by the bright lights of London, she rose from editorial assistant at Virgin Books to editorial director/board member at Harlequin UK in 8 years, with 6 years at Little, Brown UK in between (where she commissioned on the Piatkus imprint). She went freelance in 2015, and loves the variety of clients and projects this involves. Publisher clients include: Bookouture; Elliott & Thompson; Hachette Ireland; HarperCollins; Little, Brown; Orion; Pan Macmillan; Penguin Random House, Transworld; and Whitefox. These days she's swapped the London dazzle for the countryside, where she lives with her family and two cats.
