"Simon really knows his stuff! I wouldn't have published my book if it hadn't been for his expertise and encouragement" - Andrew Smith, author of Cows Not Cow

Supporting business owners to write and release a book they can be proud of!

Two main ways Simon can support and mentor you to get your book written and released - one-to-one support, or his book on writing/self publishing...

Mentoring and support from Simon...

Sharing 12+ years experience of writing, self publishing and marketing non-fiction books.

Whether its getting your book written, the technical side of publishing, or getting people to buy and read your book - the writing/publishing journey can often appear overwhelming.

Whether you are looking for advice on getting your book written, wondering about options for publishing, or questions about releasing your book - Simon is happy to help.

We can...

Provide clarity on your book idea.
Ways to get your book written.
Discuss the best options for publishing and releasing.
Guide you through self publishing.
Any writing/self publishing pitfalls.
Support you with the technical side of publishing - e.g. guidance on formatting, best platforms, etc.
One-off or ongoing support, with no tie-ins or obligations.
Tactics for marketing and increasing sales.

Get your writing/self publishing questions answered, and advice on the way forward with your book.

Simon often receives messages requesting mentoring, support, or advice with their book ideas, and this one-to-one consultation is a great opportunity for this.

If you are unsure where to start, we suggest booking an hour with Simon initially to discuss the best options, and after that book any additional hours/half days if required.

Rates:

Hourly - £50 per hour

Half day - £275

To arrange a day/time, e-mail: simon@libraryplayer.co.uk

"Simon supported us flawlessly in publishing the history of our Club" - Council Member - The Aberdeen Business and Professional Club

12+ years experience of writing and self publishing!

Author of 7 non-fiction books (10 books if you include updated editions of previous books!)

Simon has written and self published books since 2013 - and will share his experiences, skills and knowledge he has gained over 12 years.

Simon is NOT someone who has done an Internet course (or watched a couple of YouTube videos) and suddenly become an overnight expert.

Unlike a lot of the videos you find on the Internet, Simon will actually show you his own books (and what's worked for him), there's no affiliate links, and no false promises.

We can NOT help with: editing/proofreading, do all the work for you, copywriting, ghostwriting, or low content books. However, if you'd like help with any of these, we may be able to introduce you to people who can help!

Unfortunately we can't upload your book, covers, etc. to self publishing platforms for you (this is against their terms and conditions!) - although we are happy to provide advice on the steps, etc.
