Creative self-expression is a route to insight, confidence, and transformation – for all of us.
My workshops, talks and courses combine classical rhetoric with theatrical improvisation, visual art with narrative, technical skill with emotional truth.
These things feed each other:
Background
Eight books, in 16 languages: fiction, illustrated poetry, memoir and non-fiction.
Worked for years as a journalist, magazine writer and editor on the Financial Times and the Sunday Times.
Trained in classical rhetoric and theatrical improvisation.
Recovered from psychiatric crisis through making art. It wasn’t just recovery but liberation. That experience transformed my understanding of creative practice and informs everything I do.
