Richard Fitt - Editor - is the founder and driving force behind the company and has been working full time for the company since its inception. Starting life as an industrial chemist in the leather trade more 'moons' ago than he cares to remember, Richard has had entrepreneurial business ventures into financial services, catering, web design and has even owned a men's clothing shop.

In 1992 he wrote a book for which, as he discovered, it was extremely hard to find either an agent or a publisher, so when the opportunity arose to start his own publishing company he jumped at the idea; the rest, as they say, is history.

When not publishing, Richard spends his time acting and directing for the local theatre - a hobby he has participated in for over 30 years. He is also the current chairman of St Neots Players.

Penny Ridler - Submissions - Penny joins us from the world of retail and is based at our head office in Gamlingay. She looks forward to contributing to the development of the company and learning the complexities of the world of self-publishing.

When not at her desk Penny is kept busy by a husband, 2 small children, a dog and her chicken's, who don't exactly get on well with the dog!

James Fitt - Production Manager- Based in Teignmouth, Devon, James is the technical brains behind the book layouts and cover designs. Always a dab hand at computing and artistic design, James is also an accomplished musician.

He has had his own signed band, 'Blunt', in which he was the lead guitarist, and had a minor hit record called 'I'll be Fine'. He is currently the lead guitarist and lead singer of rock band 'Six Claw Paw'. You can listen to some of their latest songs at www.facebook.com/sixclawpaw

Marjorie Hardwicke - Administration and Finance - Marjorie is the steady hand of administration, paying our authors their royalties and keeping a weather eye on the money side of the business. The real power behind the company!

When not steadying the ship Marje is also an accomplished musician, who has been able to play the piano by ear since she was a child. She also sings in a church choir and tends to her 250 ft. garden on fine days!

Sarah Jones - Administration, Finance and Book Ordering - Sarah has been with us since the end of 2009 and has taken our accounts and admin system well and truly into the electronic age. She also runs our Book Ordering department. When not dealing with invoicing and matters financial she is looking after a husband and young son. Sarah also owns a temperamental Arab Stallion called 'Freddie' - good luck with that one!

Alex Kerr - Press Releases - Alex, who moved to New Zealand with her Kiwi husband in 2000 has been helping our authors to write their press releases since 2009. Her other job is Media Manager for 'Winter Sports New Zealand', the organisation to look after New Zealand's elite athletes who compete in top international competitions involving Winter Sports. So she is pretty experienced and gets many of our authors' books noticed by the media.

Since she lives in a beautiful mountain holiday resort with a lake surrounded by ski slopes, it would be quicker to describe what activities she or the family don't get involved with!!
