With over twenty years of experience in publishing, as your ghostwriter I can help realise your vision in print, accurately conveying what you want to say in your own voice. From memoirs and fiction, to self-help and well-being guides, I will turn your thoughts into a well-crafted narrative.

My writing career began as the co-author of eight celebrity biographies with Bryony Sutherland, published by Random House, Virgin Books, Aurum Press, Ebury Press, Omnibus Press, Music Sales, Hannibal, Birmar, and Heel Verlag. Together we were called "professional storytellers" by The Guardian, "very professional" by Film Review, "immensely readable" by The Beat Goes On, "detailed" by Sunday Express, and "insightful" by OK! Magazine.

We also wrote a number of celebrity magazine articles and a long-running fictional series, after which I progressed to web content and numerous blogs for a wide variety of sites. This prolific short content work led to ghostwriting several series of self-help guides and motivational manuals. I own a raw-feeding pet shop and write monthly blogs on canine nutrition and animal health.

A BA Hons Degree in History, specialising in the twentieth century, has bolstered many of my historical fiction pieces. My Master’s Degree in Reward has benefited the many motivational and self-help books I have penned for clients. The memoirs I have ghostwritten usually have a self-help or motivational element to them, covering personalities from the professional worlds of music and sport, dealing with subjects ranging from anorexia to addiction and abuse. I am also currently undertaking courses in psychology and philosophy to further my knowledge and support a fiction client with an ongoing theology series spanning ten centuries.

As an author myself, I understand the process; from concept and framework, through writing and editing, to marketing and publicity. I am here to help you, every step of the way, from getting off the starting blocks of an idea to achieve the end product.
