Someone I speak to regularly in a local coffee shop recently asked whether I monetise my work. It’s a fair question. Many people assume that bloggers, vloggers and podcasters are driven by income or audience metrics.
Most of the books I’ve written since 2018 are available on Amazon for less than the price of a coffee. But the real purpose of my writing is to share ideas, experience and understanding that might help anyone who is trying to make sense of the problems we all live with, even when we don’t always recognise them as shared.
Because reading long essays online isn’t always easy, I’ve made a selection of my books, essays and other work available here as PDFs. You’re welcome to download and read them at no cost. All I ask is that you respect the copyright, don’t reproduce or distribute the files, and acknowledge the source appropriately if you refer to anything you’ve used.
Books are listed first, followed by essays further down the page.
