Hi, I’m Mireille, an Editorial Director, author and editorial and communications consultant working at the intersection of books, culture and ideas.
For the past nine years, I’ve worked with bestselling, prize-winning and critically acclaimed authors, helping shape books that find their audiences and make an impact. I’m currently Editorial Director of TONIC, an imprint of Bloomsbury, where I publish books that help readers think, feel and live better.
I’m also an author myself. My debut book, Timelines from Black History, published by Dorling Kindersley, has sold more than 60,000 copies worldwide. I’ve been writing for more than a decade, with work published in British Vogue, Glamour, Good Housekeeping, GUAP, Nataal and elsewhere.
Alongside publishing and writing, I run an editorial and communications consultancy, working with authors, brands and organisations to develop ideas, sharpen their stories and create compelling content that connects with the people they want to reach.
Whether I’m commissioning a book, writing one, shaping a brand’s voice or advising on an editorial strategy, my focus is the same: finding the strongest idea, telling it brilliantly and making it matter.
Explore my books, writing and editorial and communications work, or follow my Substack for thoughts on publishing, writing, books and the ideas behind them.
Please note: I am frequently impersonated by scammers. I will never offer literary representation, agenting or related services under any circumstances.
