I WROTE A BOOK. SO CAN YOU.

An inspiring, practical talk for anyone who’s dreamed of writing but never knew where to start.

1 in 3 people say they want to write a book one day. Most never do.

I didn’t wait for the perfect time. I wrote and published Immensus—my debut novel—while working full-time in London and figuring it all out along the way.

I now give talks that share my journey, challenge the myths surrounding writing, publishing, and marketing, and demonstrate that writing a book is within reach for anyone with the passion to do it.

How many of your colleagues read on their way to work or whenever they can? Probably many.

Whether you’re simply curious about how a novel gets written or you’re serious about starting your own project, you’ll leave with insights that resonate, spark ideas, and challenge you to take action. This isn’t vague motivation; that would have got me nowhere. It’s a clear, practical, and inspiring session designed for anyone who’s curious about writing, or ever wondered:

“COULD I DO THIS?”

I’ll take your team through

How I went from idea to published novel while running a Fintech startup
The tools, habits, and mindset that made it possible
The essential skill set—and how to acquire it quickly
Writing and editing: practical do’s and don’ts
Publishing vs. self-publishing: objectives, pros, and cons
How to find readers and launch a debut book into the world
And most importantly: how anyone can take their own story idea seriously and start making progress
