Biography and Memoir Service

The biography and memoir service is offered for both personal and corporate projects, which can be presented as articles, books, web and social media content. Every person’s life story is worth telling. I am intrigued by how circumstance, upbringing, life events and choices can shape an individual in terms of motivation, achievements, and perspectives on life. Through detailed historical research and a carefully structured interview process, I work closely with the client to provide a full and accurate account of their life story. The corporate biography service will provide a permanent and unique historical record of an organisation from any business or charity sector, celebrating its origins and achievements, and can function as a PR and marketing tool. Biographical publications can range from 1,000 word articles to 80,000 word books, and I will tailor the presentation to your specific needs.

Music and Culture

I write for artists, record labels, magazines, social media, music websites and surrounding communities. Briefs are welcomed to assist in the promotion of digital, vinyl and CD releases, through providing historical research, biographies, written content for liner notes and other supportive promotional materials. I have written five books on the history of soul music. Through my life long passion for music, work within the industry and networking with related sub-culture scenes, I am well positioned to deliver the client’s project to a targeted audience.

Nutrition and Health

Writing services are also available for nutrition and health topics. I have a proven track record as the sole or primary author of several research papers and commentaries in peer reviewed medical and clinical nutrition journals, attained through a long career in clinical dietetics working in medical, surgical, critical care and community environments. I was commissioned by the British Dietetic Association to contribute to the 5th Edition of the Manual of Dietetic Practice, the core reference text book of the UK dietetic profession.

Quality

“It’s the kind of book that makes you want to throw yourself into any number of fine retrospective record collections exploring the work of labels, both well-known and obscure. In every way, an outstanding undertaking (5 star rating)”
