Karen Stanley – Mabel & Stanley Publishing

With over a decade of experience as a writer, Karen embarked on a personal publishing journey that’s been both long and bumpy! She’s explored various publishing avenues, from Vanity Publishing to Self-Publishing, and even experienced the traditional publishing route twice… in the end, Hybrid Publishing was the ideal choice for her.

Karen is a former teacher and assistant headteacher with over 20 years experience teaching literacy and writing. She has an MSc in Environmental Conservation (she is passionate about nature and wellbeing), and has mentored hundreds of student teachers, young people and new and budding writers. She has written a plethora of articles, texts, content, and educational material for a whole host of business and education organisations both nationally and internationally. For many years she was also a senior moderator for writing in her local authority. She is a lover of writing and all things bookish!
