I'm a professional business and fiction writer/editor. I mentor writing to publication level, as well as GCSE and A Level English tutoring and support.

After twelve years of snatching every waking hour to write my novel, I reached a point where every critique led me straight back into endless editing and rewriting.

During a holiday, I read my manuscript from beginning to end. What I read was disheartening: My voice felt diluted, the characters distant.

A family member who raved about Crispin recommended I get in touch with him. I’m so glad I did.

Crispin has an extraordinary ability to hold thousands of words in his head. This isn’t just a technical skill — it’s a gift that allows him to truly hear characters, their voices, their nuances, their contradictions. He tunes into tone, rhythm, and intent in a way that breathes new life into the pages.

Over seventeen weeks of two-hour mentoring sessions, I’ve watched my novel begin to flourish. Most importantly, I now see a clear path to the end.

Crispin doesn’t just mentor. He listens, remembers, guides, and genuinely cares about the work and the writer behind it. If you’re lost in your own story, as I was, I can’t recommend him enough.
