“Ian is a brilliant writer, editor and consultant and marvellous to work with. If there was a word for going beyond going beyond going beyond the call of duty, Ian would know what it is, and would've written this testimonial a lot better than I have! Seriously, if you want any help writing or publishing a book, or want a ghostwriter, Ian is the expert'.

“I have used Ian's business writing services several times over the past few years. Among other things, he helped us to prepare the English version of an important new business book (translated from the original Norwegian). The book is part of a strategic business initiative and therefore high value for us. Ian offers a superb combination of great writing, good business advice and also the ability to listen and really understand his client’s challenges. He is great to work with.”
— Amund Fjeldstad, Managing Director, Fjeldstad and Partners, and founder 'yongcareer.com'.

“I cannot praise Ian Rowland’s services too highly. I had a book that I was very keen to publish. But after having written most of it, conducting interviews and so on, I got stuck. I didn’t know what the next steps were. I tried to find the answers online, bought various software packages and got nowhere. I'm embarrassed to say I simply gave up.

Then I heard about Ian Rowland and his expertise in this area. I arranged a Zoom call with him and within days we started working together. Even though we live on opposite sides of the planet, Ian and I were able to collaborate easily online. It was an exhilarating experience to see my book gradually take shape, exactly the way I wanted it to be. Ian and I became great friends throughout weeks of re-writes, editing, joking and even occasional disagreements. I was especially impressed by Ian’s expertise with page layout (there’s a lot more to it than you might think!), how quickly he works and his incredible attention to detail.

Now my book is finished, it's on sale and I love it! If you need something written, or you need a ‘ghostwriter’, or want to self-publish a book, Ian’s simply the best there is.”
— David Kurays, author, 'Ginosko' (magic book).
