Hi! I'm Jason from London UK. I write self help books based on my own experiences of dealing with problems. I've had my fair share of personal challenges so I decided to write about them and share my wisdom and try to help others.

My first book was about how you can cut down how much you drink alcohol so that you can enjoy a drink rather than depending on it. I've had so much positive feedback for that book that I decided to write more. ...more

Why I wrote my first book

This is why I wrote my first book How To Control Your Alcohol Consumption

Many people drank too much as teenagers, I was no different but my heavy drinking dragged on into adulthood.

It was a big problem for me for many years. A lot of my overdrinking was down to low self esteem and peer pressure; always trying to 'keep up' with my fellow drinkers; finishing a pint because someone bought it for me a Read more of this blog post »

Jason Newman liked T.A. Jenkins's review of Who’s Afraid of Gender?: "An interesting and fascinating read, however, I didn't fully 'vibe' with the writing style- for me, the text was a little meandering in places, with some overly long sentences dragging down the flow. Well worth your time though."

Jason Newman and 11 other people liked T.A. Jenkins's review of The Fraud: Keir Starmer, Morgan McSweeney, and the Crisis of British Democracy: "A somewhat depressing and anger-inducing read. I honestly didn't think my opinion of Starmer and the current iteration of the Labour Party could drop even lower, but... wow. Definitely worth a read."
