Telling Your Story

Having spent much of my career finding true stories and adapting them into screenplays, novels or poetry, I know that everyone has a story inside of them.

I am frequently amazed by the tales I’m told and will always provide encouragement and sensitivity as you reflect and share. My experience enables me to find the right structure for your story, to find your voice and bring your story to life - and I never use AI.

How does it work? You talk, I listen, and together we craft your story into an engaging piece of literature which captures you and your emotions through the life experiences you want to share. I will ensure we find the humour, the heart and the awe-inspiring moments so that you can feel proud of the story you will pass on to others.
