Meet The Founder

With over 20 years in the publishing and PR industry, award-winning author, coach and publicist Ray Star created Soul Story to help creatives reconnect with their passion and to write impactful novels with purpose and prose.

Having worked with writers at every stage of their journey, Ray saw how often talented creatives were held back not by ability, but by self-doubt, procrastination, fear, or lack of industry knowledge.

Soul Story was created to offer a supportive way to write, using mindfulness-led creative practices and the power of imagination to transform pressure into purpose, and create a bridge between publishing and marketing that supports writers beyond the final page.
