“You have written an absolute masterpiece,” publisher.


With a vast treasury of knowledge and skills from working for traditional publishers like Penguin, I specialise in:


MENTORING new writers. Let the old wolf guide you every step of the way.


and


REWRITING to a professional standard when you already have most of the material.


This is exactly how I do the rewriting:


*Put the story into a narrative sequence


*Organise it into escalating chapters


*Structure it to maximise mystery, suspense and tension


*Build to and emphasise the dramatic moments


*Flesh out anecdotes to give them more depth and texture


*Tease suspense and humor out of the story to make it compelling reading


*Climax with the most thrilling and satisfying ending


*Retain your own unique storytelling voice


*Rewrite for clarity, re-using you own words as much as possible


*Add/correct small details of fact researched from the internet


*Correct spelling and grammar


*Eliminate repetition


*Create a compelling, readable narrative


Your story will read better than you dared to imagine.

Work experience

Self-employed

Aug, 1993 — Present

A ghostwriter is usually anonymous. Once, I was invited to the launch party of a book I had ghosted for a celebrity, at which the publisher thanked everyone (except me) told the best joke in the book (mine) and the salesperson tried to sell me a book (the one I had written!).
Without revealing any confidentiality, here is a selection of projects I have worked on:

• Various Sports Stars
• Leading defense attorney who had conducted over 150 murder trials
• International sports coaches
• Mother of murdered teen in high profile crime case
• Humorous book ghosted for celebrity
• 5 x 5,000 NF books written in 10 days to get a publisher out of a hole
• Several late deadline books
• Army veteran who lost a leg in Afghanistan
• World champions
• Holocaust Survivor
• Internet Influencer

Tony was, in a word, AMAZING. Exactly what I was looking for even though I did not necessarily know it when I started looking. Positive, collaborative, but, most importantly, professional. I felt safe with him and at the same time enhanced by what he has to offer. I have no hesitation in recommending Tony as a collaborator, editor, partner.
