Details of talks given by Ben Jeapes
Ben Jeapes has been a full-time ghostwriter since 2015, and was a published author in his own right long before. As a ghostwriter he has over fifty novels to his credit, mostly for children and young adults, though he has also written crime and thrillers for adults. His clients have included several people you will have heard of, whom he couldn't possibly name here but may be persuaded to provide clues about. His speciality is taking a client’s life, experiences and skills and working them into fictional form. His experiences are described in his how-to book GHOSTWRITING NOVELS: A GUIDE FOR GHOSTWRITERS AND THE GHOSTWRITTEN. Although most of his work has been writing fiction, he also writes popular science, non-fiction and biography.
Under his own name he is the author of eight novels and a collection of eighteen short stories, all written alongside the day job: nearly 30 years working in publishing (social sciences, I.T., medicine, science fiction and law) and technical communications. His children’s biography ADA LOVELACE (David Fickling Books 2019) was chosen by the National Science Teaching Association as one of the Best STEM Books of 2021.
