Wealth of experience
Fiction
I have an MA in Television and Radio Scriptwriting and understand the importance of ingredients such as plot, characterisation, dialogue and tone in creating a riveting piece of fiction.
As a keen creative writer and avid reader, I appreciate the language and style of genres including crime, adventure, thriller, historical and science fiction.
'I was blown away when I received my edited manuscript back from John Romans. Not only did his work display an incredible eye for detail, his suggestions were invaluable and have enabled me to feel confident and proud of my debut novel. He even spotted mistakes I’d made in my end notes.
'On top of all this John was very happy to offer personal communication, responding quickly to my questions. I wholeheartedly recommend his services to any writer who wants to make his or her book shine.'

Through my academic and professional careers I have a number of specialisms and have worked on many successful projects in areas including biography, economics, history, politics, media and sport.
