Helping Mission-Driven Leaders Tell Their Stories Through Impactful:

Writing, Speaking, and Mental Health Coaching.


Writer | Speaker | Mental Health Coach

I’m a ghostwriter, author, and mental health coach who works with purpose-driven leaders, helping them write thought-provoking, culture defining and spiritually moving books, e-books, articles, and more.

I help you get your message, stories, and testimonies down so that you can impact your communities and initiate social change.

As a coach, I work with leaders in ministry, non-profits, education, charities, and public figures, as well as professionals, to strive toward better mental health and wellbeing to have foundational and better mental health that gets results.

So if you are a founder or leader sharing your vision, a pastor who wants to produce your ministry books, or a non-profit leader or coach who wants to share your vision for change, get in touch.

About


I’m Alex.

I am a writer, author, speaker, and mental health coach, passionate about the stories we tell.

I help purpose-driven leaders create digital and physical products that transform, encourage, and connect with the people they want to reach.

Working with is the first step to producing high-quality and change-driven work, through my decades worth of experience in journalism, marketing, mental health leadership, and communications.

I am an experienced group facilitator, a qualified coach and therapist, and have been working diligently to help people tell the stories the world needs to hear, shaping communities, building relationships, and developing a strong sense of identity.

  • Alex is a professional writer, specialising in men’s mental health and the intersections of faith, masculinity and leadership.

    He offers services in:

    • Freelance Writing

    • Ghostwriting and Collaborative Writing

    • Editing, Copyediting and Proofreading

    • Book Doctoring.

  • COLLABORATIVE WRITING

    You have a book idea or outline but would like an expert writer to create the manuscript.

    In this partnership, you provide the book’s content to your writer through interviews, transcripts, or supporting documents.

    The result: a final manuscript written in your voice. Throughout this collaboration, you’ll review each chapter, providing feedback and guidance throughout the writing process.

    Books and EBooks:

    Establish yourself as a trusted expert through books and ebooks, that outline your expertise and authority. Books are fun - let’s get your story out there.

    Articles:

    Blog articles on Substack, Medium, your personal website and other platforms are a great way to establish and display your thinking and grow your audience.

    Alex can help you shape these to your voice and grow.

  • Editing:

    You have a completed manuscript and you’d like detailed feedback on your ideas, content, and structure.

    In a developmental editing package, we’ll pair you with an editor who will read your entire manuscript and will provide professional feedback on the content.

    This includes but is not limited to the voice, tone, pace, organisation, and continuity of your manuscript.

    Copyediting:

    You have a complete and edited manuscript that you are preparing for print and want to make sure there are no errors. This is where copyediting comes in.

    Copyediting addresses errors with punctuation, formatting, spelling, and spacing. This is the final round of editing that takes place before your book goes to the typesetter.

    Proofreading:

    Your book or article has been designed and is almost ready to go to the printer.

    You just need one final pass to make sure everything is perfect and no new errors were introduced during typesetting.

    Proofreading is the critical last step to make sure your book looks as professional and polished as possible.

  • Do you have a complete (or nearly complete) manuscript or proposal draft but know it needs some work? It might be time for a book doctor.

    With book doctoring, you will work closely with Alex (a professional writer) to refine your structure and develop your content where needed.

    The result is an organised, polished, professional proposal or manuscript that you’ve written in collaboration with Alex, your book doctor.
