Read or review material
Books, manuscripts, reports, proposals, guides or a chapter that needs an independent reader.
Explore reading & review →Sometimes you don't need another consultant, another meeting, or a complicated process. You need someone experienced to read the material, look at the problem, ask sensible questions and tell you what they think.
Odd problem?
Ask anyway.
Not every job needs a consultant. Sometimes you just need an experienced person to sort out a frustrating glitch, fix a small problem or find a practical solution — without the big-project price tag.
Professional help. Fair prices. No fuss.
We’re getting the basics working and testing whether this kind of practical, no-fuss help is useful. The site may change as we learn. If you have a problem, draft or question, you’re welcome to get in touch — and we’ll agree the scope and price before any paid work begins.
Start with what you have. Explain what you need. I'll look at the request and tell you honestly whether I can help.

Describe what you're trying to do and attach relevant material if useful.
I'll decide whether it's a good fit and ask for clarification if needed.
We agree the deliverable, price and timing before work begins.
Receive practical feedback, recommendations or the agreed finished work. For accepted jobs, follow progress and messages through a private job page when that feature is available.
That’s fine. Tell me what you’re trying to solve. I’ll let you know if I can help, suggest a sensible next step, or say if it’s outside my experience.
Think it’s too small or silly to ask? Small questions are welcome, too. You can tell me the maximum you’d be comfortable spending, and we’ll see what’s realistic.
