Paul Krogh

Meet Paul Krogh, Marketing Director of The Book Whisperers, and a creative polymath whose career has danced between innovation, academia, and the arts. Over the past decade, Paul has worked at the cutting edge of Research and Development within a renewable energy start-up and innovation lab, while also teaching and lecturing in business schools on subjects ranging from Economics and Marketing to Philosophy and Business Ethics.

A lifelong writer and thinker, Paul has spent years surrounded by inspiring storytellers, scientists, and creators - each one fuelling his passion for words. Having written everything from academic papers to personal journals (and, by his own admission, some "dreadful poetry"), Paul understands the power of expression and the courage it takes to put pen to paper. His advice to aspiring writers? “Don’t wait for the perfect moment - just do it.”

Paul’s creative journey began early - at age 11, while ill at home, he was tasked by his father with designing a logo. That simple act of drawing sparked a lifelong fascination with design, typography, and storytelling. By 17, he was working in the design industry, and at 19, his creative ventures had expanded into photography, even winning a Paris exhibition award.

Over the years, Paul’s artistic curiosity has taken many forms: designing books, illustrating CD covers, publishing photography in outlets such as The Scotsman, and even producing documentary films. Notably, he photographed Bond girl Honor Blackman, served as the official photographer for Copper Bottom Sunshine, and helped produce a cookbook for a Midlothian-based charity, distributed through IKEA.

Now, as he returns to his creative roots, Paul is thrilled to bring his rich blend of marketing acumen, artistic flair, and academic rigour to The Book Whisperers.

"The work Mary and the team do is extraordinary - it enriches lives through the written word. I’m delighted to be joining this inspiring community and hope to make a positive impact, helping more writers find their voice and share their story."
