About Me

I am a UK-based freelance writer with a strong background in financial services — 14 years in retail banking — and author of 'A Landlord's Guide to Letting'.

As a writer, I have produced website content, consumer guides, articles and blogs for corporate clients in a variety of markets. My work has ranged from helpful mortgage guides, through economic analysis and news articles, to writing for a weight loss clinic and a martial arts film website. My magazine work has included writing feature articles for 'Global Business Magazine' and 'Your Wellness'.

I have carried out extensive editing and proofreading projects for both print and online business media, helping improve quality and add value to the finished products.

I have also edited and proofread a number of books for self-publishing and traditionally published authors (in both ebook and print formats). This experience has included a number of novels and short story collections as well as non-fiction titles.

I offer my services to personal clients too, and have helped write and edit documents such as personal complaint letters, CVs and job applications.

Areas covered: UK-based, but willing to work remotely to service clients worldwide.

Job Reviews on PPH

by Graham C on 09 May 2012

Steven's work was top quality. He communicated well and delivered on time. Highly recommended.

by Deega A on 07 May 2012

Steven is absolutely wonderful to work with, he is efficient and always has suggestions to make things better but without imposing any of his own ideas. He designed an amazing front cover for my ebook and I couldn't have worked with a better person for the job. Now I know where to go for my next ebook cover needs!

by G C on 04 May 2012

As usual up to Steven's very high standards. I will be back again.
