Why Learn from Me?

I’ve worked in publishing for more than 30 years — from educational publishing to commercial non-fiction, from bookshops to boardrooms. I know how the industry works because I’ve been part of it: as an editor, a publisher, a consultant, and now as a trainer.

Over the years, I’ve helped hundreds of writers:

Get their books published professionally
Navigate the minefield of self-publishing
Land agents and secure traditional publishing deals
Avoid the scams, shortcuts and false promises that waste time and money

I don’t sell miracle fixes. I won’t tell you what you want to hear. Instead, I’ll give you straight answers, clear steps, and ongoing support — so you can make confident decisions about your book and your publishing journey.

Whether you’re looking to self-publish or find a literary agent, I’ll help you do it properly — and avoid the painful mistakes most first-time authors make.

He knows his stuff, and the day was massive value for money. I'd recommend Ed to anyone who wants to write a book or create information products."

"Ed's workshop 'How to get Published' was the best investment in time and money that I have spent in a long time! I barely slept that night as had my book swimming round in my head! Many thanks Ed for an inspiring day shared with so many amazing like-minded people!"

Steve Preston

"Ed brings his deep knowledge of publishing into the self-publishing world. His enthusiasm has helped make Julie Clark's BABY LED WEANING STEP-BY-STEP manual the success it was always meant to be. If you want to self-publish and you have a viable product, Ed can make it happen."
