Testimonials

See what writers say about working with me.

Robin Pascoe

Author of Homeward Bound

“I would like to thank you for the time, effort and commitment you have given to Homeward Bound over the last year. Your vision as an editor has taken a fledgling idea into its current, highly regarded form.”

Mariam Ottomofiore

Author of This Messy Mobile Life

Thank you once again for being so amazing to work with. In the middle of all the end of year craziness, I paused to look at my book and feel very proud of how it has been written. Truly feel that thanks to your help and advice, I’ll be putting the best version out there.”

Matthew Smith

Author of The Millennial Money Masterplan

“Mentoring with you is perfect for anyone, like me, who wants to write a book and has no idea where to start. Without you I would still be sitting in the garden thinking about it. I could not have done it without you.”

Tanya Crossman

Author of Misunderstood and Thongs or Flipflops

“That’s why you’re worth the money. You just make a book better.

Ruth Rusby

Author of A Celebration of Breastfeeding

“I have thoroughly enjoyed the How to Write a How-to book course. It has been particularly great to be in a small group, writing about different subjects but doing everything we can to support each other. We have all come a long way in the last few months and I don’t want this journey to end. The whole is so much greater than the sum of the parts.”

Andrea Anstiss

Author of Juicy Life

Still totally buzzed, thrilled, over the moon. I honestly can’t thank you, Jack and Paddy enough. One client and one friend have already received their copies and it looks GORGEOUS!”

Dave Scarlett

Author of The Soul Millionaire and The Flight of the Soul Millionaire

“A magical week being coached by Jo in this sublime place, Posara, is just such an experience. I’ve created such beauty with my pen, speaking more lyrically, powerfully and piercingly, than I ever thought possible.
