What do you love most about your job?
I love the freedom and independence having my own business gives me, and the reward of happy clients being the result of your own hard work - it never fails to raise a smile!
Why should our clients choose you?
As a voracious reader and serial book-sniffer, my editorial instinct has been cultivated through my deep love of a comfy chair and well-stocked bookshelf, and a borderline obsessive relationship with my Kindle. While I have an academic background, I love books and prose of all kinds, and am continually fascinated and delighted by language - to me, there's no more pleasurable sight than words on a page! Working with writers and academics is a real privilege, and I take immense satisfaction from helping to tell stories and communicate messages and arguments in the most engaging and reader-friendly way.
Copyediting
Does your content need a little more 'pep' to make it pop? English not your first language? Something not quite flowing as it should, but you can longer see the wood for the trees? You need an editor! A professional editor can ensure that your marketing copy strikes exactly the right tone; that your key message is effectively and appropriately conveyed; that your website content leaps off the page; that your blog or article captivate your audience; that your dialogue sounds natural, your prose is smooth, and, above all, that your writing looks as good on paper as it sounds in your head!
Stand out from the crowd by having your copy or writing edited by a professional who can ensure that your communication with your reader has exactly the desired effect. Various levels of editing are available.
Copywriting
I can craft long or short form copy for a variety of media and purposes, whether you're looking for engaging web copy, a creative blog post, enticing editorial, or informative report. I specialise in formal and academic writing, but am able to provide copy for any industry or audience.
