The Writers Blog

I am a 59 year old Scot now living permanently in Spain. The passion I have to help others grow, develop and be even more successful personally or financially is the driving force behind this and the other blogs I update regularly.

I have a number of mentors, offline and online, but I really don’t have to look much further than my own family.

I am fortunate to have a very understanding and caring wife and two great kids. My wife, Rose, she has been very supportive. She is a true inspiration in the way she can be so positive no matter what the challenges are.

Our daughter, Alexandra, is now 20. Partially deaf as a result of Meningitis, she is so dedicated to achieving the best she can. She is at university in Scotland studying sports and journalism and will soon be off to Miami to study there for one year. I would also love to have half her social skills.

Our son, Lewis, 17, loves sports, music and drama. He has such a self-confidence and self belief, I am constantly reminded on how powerful that can be. He hates writing!

I consider myself to be very lucky in the lifestyle(s) I have had and in having great people who have inspired me and always been there for me through good times and bad.

I have always enjoyed writing as far back as I can remember. Yes, I can struggle at times as most writers can. That is why I have started this blog to help as many new and seasoned writers to be more effective, more productive and, hopefully, more profitable. The posts are based on my own experience, research and, above all, the guidance and help I have been given both online and offline.

I have also written and will continue to write courses, guides and reports on how to improve and develop your writing skills.

So, look out for those and, by all means, tell me what you need to help you become a “better writer”.

Thanks Again and Enjoy
