Meet the Publishing Consultant behind Lux Fotini

Learn more about the experience, values, and mission that fuel my results-driven consulting approach in publishing—helping ambitious authors and publishers build with clarity and confidence.

I work with founders, creatives, and solo business owners to help them break through overwhelm, find clarity, and build individual books and take whole projects to successful launch.

I believe strategy shouldn’t be confusing—and that running a list or a project team can feel lighter, sharper, and more aligned with who you are.

I've worked professionally with startups to seasoned brands over the last 15 years—including these brands.

For over a decade, I built and led teams across the world for a global academic publisher.
Then I was widowed, and my world changed...

MY STORY https://www.womanandhome.com/life/inspirational-women/husband-died-suddenly-turning-things-around/ https://www.thetripleshift.org/podcast/lucy-melville

I was made redundant from that job, and I lost my livelihood as well. I co-founded a new press, and started to build a new working life as a freelance.

I didn’t lose my will and determination, and I have built a successful enterprise as a solopreneur. I look forward to whatever the next steps in the journey bring. Read more about my story in the press, as featured in The Independent, The Bookseller, Best magazine, Woman an Home , and on podcasts.
