Overview
I've recently ghost-written books with the CEO of an international airline and a professional footballer. More generally, I've enjoyed a long, varied and successful career in Business and Management, latterly becoming a renowned writer of e-learning and developmental books, such as the Good Manager Guides.
I have four published sportsbooks to my name - plus four others that I've ghost-written - working with prestigious publishing houses such as Bloomsbury. Won Dr. Tony Ryan Book Award in the United States for 'Warriors on Horseback'.
Nowadays my main focus is on ghostwriting for people who want to tell their story in an engaging way. Biographies and memoirs, particularly sport-related, are my speciality. I also work with people and businesses that want to create high impact blogs, e-learning or books that showcase their expertise.
I've learned that the key skill, when working with and for others, is to write from their perspective and in their voice, capturing their ideas, personality and style.
'I have worked with John on producing a book documenting my father’s life. It’s been challenging because of my father’s health initially, suffering with Parkinson’s and latterly as he passed away before we’d finished the project. John has been flexible, understanding and a pleasure to work with. He’s made easy something which seemed too difficult to pull off. John has guided us carefully through every stage and the end result is a fantastic book telling dad’s story which simply couldn’t have been achieved without John and which we can’t wait to release.' - James Blower
