NibWeb is the Network for Information Book Writers and Editors

I am a freelance writer and editor of books and magazine articles on history and related subjects - such as prehistoric life, ghosts and so forth. I have a back-up team of freelance artists and designers with whom I work closely, so I could take a load off your shoulders whether you want some writing or editing done, or if you want to out-source an entire project. I fully understand the needs and dictates of deadlines, schedules and budgets having project-managed almost as many as I have eaten hot dinners. In short, I come with a headful of ideas, a roomful of reference and more enthusiasm than you could shake a stick at. With a total of over 150 books published to my name, plus numerous magazine and newspaper articles, I have all the experience you could want. I am experienced, thorough and willing to work hard drawing on 20 years spent in publishing. I also write books for adults. Full details are available on my website www.rupertmatthews.com
