Overview
I help remarkable people tell amazing stories.
As one of the UK’s most established ghostwriters, I help incredible people tell amazing stories. I’ve worked with Dragons, Olympians and the most famous adventurer in the world to write bestselling books. I have spent thirty years in publishing working both as a journalist and editor for Time Out, TV Times, The Guardian and The Observer and have written over 40 books on a wide range of subjects from dotcoms, to curry to soap operas. I have also ghostwritten a chart topping crime fiction series.
My clients include Duncan Bannatyne, Sir Steve Redgrave, Bear Grylls, pop stars and a stripper. I’ve proven I can write in almost any style, and capture any voice. I’ve written memoirs, how-to manuals, business books and page-turning thrillers.
I can write your book for you, or we can collaborate on the structure of your book so you can write it yourself. I'll be on hand to read your early drafts and offer feedback, and I'll guide you through the entire process. For fiction, we will develop a detailed 'beat sheet' - I use the Save The Cat method - that will give you a step-by-step outline of a page-turning novel.
I’m always interested to hear from people with stories to tell (you don’t have to be famous) so please do get in touch and tell me about your book. Whether you need help with a pitch for publishers, a book doctor for an existing project or someone to take you through every step of the ghosting journey, drop me a line and let's start a conversation.

I have worked full time as a ghostwriter since 2005 when I collaborated with the entrepreneur Duncan Bannatyne on his autobiography. When that became a bestseller, I was asked to ghost the memoirs of other business leaders, and over the years my list of clients has diversified to include sports stars, adventurers and even a stripper.
In 2015, I inherited the Ingrid Skyberg thriller series following the death of the author and many reviewers said they couldn't tell the author had changed. Each book has subsequently topped its category on Amazon on release.
I have also written commercial non-fiction under my own name on subjects as diverse as dotcoms, curry and allotments and have excellent research skills.
