Hi, I'm Simon Newcombe.
Creator, entrepreneur and someone who loves turning ideas into something real.
Over the years I’ve built businesses, published books, created software and probably started more projects than I should have. This is where I bring all of that together — what I’m working on, what I’ve learned and what I’m building towards.
What I'm Working On
I’m always building, testing or exploring something new. These are the main areas I’m focused on right now.
Publishing & Creator Tools
Software, resources and practical tools designed to help creators and publishers turn ideas into finished products.
Books & Publishing
My own publishing journey, the books I’m creating and the lessons I’m learning from actually putting them out into the world.
Ideas & Projects
The bigger ideas, experiments and businesses I’m working towards — including the projects that start with nothing more than a mad idea.
Tools I've Created
Some of the software and resources I’ve created for publishers and online creators.
Mystery Number Search Builder
Create original mystery number-search puzzle books for kids and adults, a hidden-answer it turns each puzzle into a little mystery.
KDP Publisher Pro
A guided publishing system built to help turn a book idea into a structured, high-quality medium-content book for Amazon KDP.
Commercial Clipart Collection
A ready-to-use collection of commercial-use graphics for books, printables and digital products.
The Free Creator Hub
I share KDP opportunity reports, publishing ideas, new tools and the things I’m finding while doing the work myself. The Creator Hub is where I bring the useful stuff together.
The Builder Vaults
For people who want more of the tools and resources I create, the Builder Vaults brings my members-only products into one place.
More Than One Project
Not everything I work on fits neatly into publishing or software. Some ideas turn into businesses, some become long-term projects and some never make it past the notebook. That’s part of it. I enjoy taking an idea, figuring out whether it can work and seeing how far I can take it.
This site is where I’ll share more of that journey — including the wins, the mistakes and the projects still taking shape.
The Latest From Me
New projects, publishing experiments, useful tools and the things I learn while building them.
