“Outstanding”
“The Life, The Times, and Adventures of Kevin Forbes” 2nd Edition
Review for Tamara Forrest-Smith
I was fortunate enough to work and produce my
autobiography with Alan Forrest smith, sadly, just
before his demise early in 2024. I am required to
have some substantial enhancements and editing of the
the original book and produce a final version, and
publish my book hopefully in January 2025.
Exciting.
Tamara Forrest-smith offered to take on this
development with me, and all through, I had spent a
lot of time with Alan, Tamara was not known to me in
this capacity, so a little concerned.
I can only say how fortunate I have been to meet both
these professional writers, and concerns about
Tamara was greatly unfounded. Tamara has
demonstrated an enhanced vision for the whole project
and ideas for the enhancements. She has been very easy
through working with and compassionate to the
work, even though she has had to deal with her own
compassionate time during this project for me.
As I have learnt in life, craftsmen, with all the
rights “tools” will not always provide the best work
unless they have the inspirational desire to make us
compelled and absorbed in their product. Tamaras’
inspirational writing and ability to interpret
people’s writing and images are outstanding, and her
effort for me has been compassionate, mentoring, and
created a work of moral connection for the readers.
I must endorse that Tamara has worked many hours on
my project generally into the late evenings to help
me with this project.
Thank You, Tamara, Kevin Forbes
“I Am Overwhelmed By And Proud Of My Autobiography”
“Alan Forrest Smith is clearly one of the best authors of our time, with a strong desire to help others in all aspects of successful and inspirational writing.
But craftsmen with all the right “tools” will not provide inspirational work which makes people get absorbed and compelled to read unless demonstrating emotional, moral or connection to the reader.
Alan’s ability to share and nurture individuals whilst being both compassionate and mentoring his students is clear to see.
I contacted Alan just after my wife tragically died, with a draft of my Autobiography which my wife wanted written, and the news that I also am seriously ill, causing a further heart attack a few weeks later. Clearly, there is urgency for the help and advice required on my fledgling piece of work, which soon demonstrated to be needing more of Alan’s help.
Alan shared with me that concentrating on this project would be helpful both for myself and all the other duties one must live through at these times, he was right, and always compassionate to my needs.
Alan’s effort was boundless and constantly informing and requiring discussion and agreement on the Autobiography. He worked tirelessly on the book with email and texts during the day, the evenings, and some near midnight. To help achieve the completion of my book.
We have finished the book, and I am fulfilled with the fact that he helped produce a book which, I am overwhelmed by and proud of my Autobiography.
Alan is one of the few Real Humanistic people I have been lucky to come across in my life and I will be forever grateful.”

Ready To Become A Celebrated Author? Let’s Write Your Book
Dear New Author
I get it, I understand it and I know how you feel at the thought of writing your book. Business books, biographies, legacy books, spiritual how-to books or just writing for fun can all look like a mountain to climb or - OVERWHELMING!
Yet that book in your head can change everything once it’s out. And the longer you leave it the longer you are missing out.
It’s my job to make that whole writing process easier for you and turn you into the author you want to become.
On WriteaBookProject you will discover two things. First, you do not have to write your book yourself and can still become an author. This is from using my ghostwriting service.
Second, you can get that book out of your head, into print and published with good directions from an experienced author, publisher and writing or mentor.
You’ll also find a ton of tips to do this yourself or you if feel the need for an experienced writing mentor you will find that also.
You might want to cut right to the chase and know the fee. I advise you to read this page here.
This is the writer, editor, publisher and mentor Tamara Forrest-Smith here. You can read more about those claims on any of my pages.
The following will help you as a new author …
Four Ways To Write Your Book
The first way is to do everything yourself. That is a tough ask but doable. I should know, working and living alongside a writer, published author, that’s exactly how my author husband Alan wrote my first book, Escape from Zoomanity. This way of writing a book can take years. (the first book took a few years as he ended up deleting the lot and starting again.)
The second is to read tons of books on how to write your book. Get tips, advice and directions about writing your book, book writing, becoming an author, getting published and all things about writing books. This approach can also take years due to the endless confusion advice.
The third way and by far the highest investment is to hire a ghostwriter like myself to ghostwrite your book. Using this approach you will have a draft of your book within 3-6 months and hopefully, your book finished and in print within 12 months. (If you are serious and want your book done - this is a perfect option.)
The fourth way is for you if you want the fast way, but also want experienced author help. This way is to write your book with an author’s mentor. This way you can still write your book yourself. But because you’re working with an experienced author it is far quicker with almost no costly mistakes.

I do and here’s why.
Apart from my love of philosophy, and managing my husband’s philosophical writing work since 2010 at www.AlanForrestSmith.com I continue to work on the story adaptations and turning philosophical writings into theatrical productions and movie scripts.
I read philosophy of all sorts on a daily basis and have for decades.

Biography and Storyteller
I am a huge fan of biography. I love the untold stories the unravelling and the revealings where you say, ‘WOW,’ I didn’t know that. I have written written hundrieds of stories about life and events initially for myself sharing some of those to our subscribers, but recently I have completed a biographical-legacy work of the book which I also helped to publish.
