Alexander Moore

Our editor Alexander Moore started his career in the creative industry as an actor, working across the UK and Europe. This naturally transitioned into roles creating and directing workshops and plays. In 2012, he toured with Theatre Blah Blah Blah in a production called Hide and Seek, about the ethics surrounding our annual “celebration” of Bonfire Night. The play explored historical figures, murder, torture, and the religious persecution that ultimately motivated the Gunpowder Plot. He has written and directed plays for young people and led many workshops about understanding Shakespeare’s texts, script development, and modern social issues like internet safety. He has edited over 50 books for children and young adults, and numerous academic manuscripts written by eminent law professors and published internationally. He has collaborated with writers of fiction, biographies, and screenplays, but also with universities, charities, and regional businesses. On his website – AdvancedEditing.co.uk – he writes articles about grammar, points of style, and effective approaches to writing in English.
