I write novels, non-fiction, (auto)biographies, screenplays, content, tenders and funding proposals for clients. I am also a qualified trainer and coach, using NLP.

    I work flexibly and creatively to provide the writing you want - developing your story, script or project, in your own tone and voice, to your own specifications. I'm not precious about my writing, like some writers. It's your work, after all! I aim only to delight you.

    I'm also a trainer, coach and consultant in NLP. I specialise in personal development - helping people to be the best they can be - removing barriers to success and building confidence. I also work in education and personal / organisational development. I'm an INLPTA accredited NLP Trainer and Master Practitioner, a qualified Life Coach (AUNLP) and a member of ANLP.

    In addition, I am spiritual (not religious), in a very down-to-earth way. I am a reiki practitioner & angelic reiki master teacher, particularly interested in channeling / inspiration. I help to oversee a MBS centre, supporting people with their personal and spiritual development.

    I'm highly skilled, reliable and proficient and have a number of delighted clients - for autobiographies, fiction (literary, horror, comedy, romance, fantasy), non-fiction, self-help, and screenwriting (movie, TV and theatre scripts). I also write funding bids, since I have years of experience in writing bids, tenders and proposals in statutory, charitable and voluntary sector fundraising.

    Some examples-
    - millionaire businessman's life story and business philosophy
    - young entrepreneur's guide
    - children's young people's guide to divorce and separation
    - psychics' / mediums' autobiographies
    - business plans
    - training resources for courses
    - vampire and zombie horror novels
    - Bollywood romantic comedy movie script
    - comedy sketch writing and stand-up
    - 4 drama theatre productions
    - historical fantasy novel
    - teen magical fantasy novel
    - web content - for multinational corporates, retailers and SMEs - e.g. therapy site
    - European funding bids
    - numerous tenders in the health & social care sector
    - charity fundraising letters
    - personal letters
    - hypnosis scripts

    I've worked for the past 20+ years in all aspects of writing - from creative writing (and tutoring), through copywriting, marketing and promotional materials, writing successful press releases to technical and report-writing. I also write grant applications, donor sponsorship letters and funding bids.

    We can work by telephone, email, face-to-face, skype, webcam, mp3 recording...however works best for you.

    I am a certified NLP Trainer, and my practice in Neurolinguistic programming gives the added value of using language extremely effectively to achieve your desired results, and press all the right buttons.

    I have had a novel - 'Smother' published by Diva (Millivres Press), stories in award-winning anthologies, and numerous magazine articles, reviews and short stories published in national press.

    I had a short film - 'Rebound' - starring Ruth Jones of 'Gavin & Stacey' - commissioned and produced by the UK Film Council, and a pilot sit-com selected by a national TV company.

    I have also edited several books and proof-read many more (I used to be an English teacher, but I'm all right now!)
    I've even written and performed stand-up comedy!

    I take on writing projects of all kinds - ghost-writing, books, press releases, letters, fundraising applications, grants, presentations, reports, evaluation, editing, copywriting, proof-reading.

    Also - Event organisation and planning. Project management.
