The Forge is a select practice of talented writers who can help you craft whatever words you need.

Each piece of writing we help to forge is different, but projects include: developing a novel from conception to bestseller; working with leading creatives to produce non fiction and commercial copy; refining speeches, podcasts and substacks.

We are small, distinguished, discreet. Our writers all make their own celebrated work for the page, stage and screen. Whatever material you’re working on, we pair you with the writer with the best tools to hone it into shape.

The Forge: a workshop for your words.

Whenever I need a writer to turn my thoughts into words I go to her. A brilliant writer and editor. As a matter of fact, I wish she was here to write this for me.
Ruth Rogers, The River Cafe

A sounding board for me to figure out my intentions for the books and how to write them… an editor in helping me to shape and sculpt the story… a brilliant teacher, full of genuine passion for the craft. I come away inspired.
Annie Macmanus, DJ, Broadcaster & Novelist

She gave me the kind of notes that only she could give: precise, astonishingly sensitive, funny and so perceptive that it felt almost weird. She’s an incredible writer and that's because she’s an even more incredible reader. She knows what works and why it works and is so specific and delicate in her editing that you feel she gets exactly what you're trying to do somehow better than you do.
Sophie Elmhirst, 2024 Nero Book Award Non Fiction & Overall Winner

The way in which she works is so conducive to getting great material. When I was struggling to write my introduction she helped me find the words.
Claire Ptak, Chef and Author, Violet Cakes

I don’t know what I would do without her help.
Mona Benjamin, Film Producer and Writer
