John-Paul Flintoff is a writer

But he does like a bit of variety

Admirers of his writing have included the documentary maker Michael Moore, the film and theatre director Richard Eyre and the late Nobel-winner Harold Pinter, who commented: “Very good. Very funny… In fact, it made me laugh.”

John-Paul writes for The Sunday Times, the Financial Times, and other leading English-language papers and magazines.

He’s also a film maker, broadcaster and acclaimed public speaker. In fact, that’s him on the soap box.

He would like you to know that on top of all that he’s worked as bin man, executive PA, scuba diver, poet, taxi driver, tailor, gardener, ice-cream salesman, assistant undertaker, bit-part player in pantomime, waiter, illustrator, high-wire window cleaner, photographer, very amateur boxer, karaoke singer, rat catcher, and probably much more.

John-Paul lives in London.
