My name is Tom Dymond. Memoirist, adventurer, and ghostwriter.
I've spent much of my life chasing stories worth telling. In my twenties I circumnavigated the globe with more enthusiasm than nautical expertise, a journey that became my bestselling Sailing Blue Eye Around the World series. More recently I kayaked from Bristol to the Black Sea - a trip that somehow seemed like a good idea at the time, and which I'm currently turning into my next book. My latest release, Letters from a Postman, finds existentialism in the unlikely territory of a postal round.
I also help other people tell their stories. From adventurers to sailors to businesspeople, I work with clients to find their voice and shape their experiences into a memoir they're proud of. If you have a story that deserves to be written, I'd love to hear from you.

Tom Dymond does. He's lived it.
